Immerse yourself in Japanese confectionery culture with a hands-on nerikiri (refined wagashi) workshop in Kyoto. Use traditional tools to craft exquisitely detailed sweets, shaping and molding three or four pieces to take home.
Enhance your experience with an optional matcha (powdered green tea) component. Prepare and serve matcha yourself, enjoying it alongside the sweets you’ve made. This adds a layer of ritual and sensory richness—taste, texture, aroma—which deepens your appreciation of Japanese tea and sweets culture.
The interaction is relaxed and congenial, so even first-timers or those without prior experience can join in freely. The experience is accessible, running daily with many time slots (from about 9:00 AM to 3:30 PM). There is a pickup option from Hankyu Nishikyōgoku Station (within about 10–15 minutes) for those who request it, helping reduce navigation stress in Kyoto.
