Our guest: Bereczki József
For one day, we are pleased to welcome Bereczki József, who has been engaged with tea for over 20 years and studied the foundations of the Japanese tea ceremony in Japan.
His journey began with Chinese teas and, through his close connections to Japan, gradually deepened into the world of matcha and the tea ceremony.
He started studying the tea ceremony in Japan at the Edosenke school, and later continued in the Enshu-ryu tradition. Drawing on these experiences, on this occasion he will present and lead a traditionally oriented matcha preparation.
What can you expect?
Matcha prepared with traditional tools
Insight into the culture and preparation of Japanese matcha
An immersive yet approachable matcha experience that begins with a shared introduction to the cultural and philosophical background of matcha. Participants then take part in a matcha preparation demonstration and ceremony in two small groups, focusing on taste, attention, and presence. Before and after the ceremony, guests are welcome to enjoy the tea house’s other offerings at their own pace.
