Matcha Workshop

Embark on a serene and enriching journey into the heart of Japanese tea culture with our exclusive “Matcha Workshop,” a highlight of the Japanese Fair – Sense of Japan 2025 at The Okura Prestige Bangkok. This meticulously crafted workshop is designed for both beginners and tea enthusiasts eager to deepen their understanding and appreciation of authentic matcha. 

Your guide for this immersive experience is Khun Ariya Chaweeniramol, a distinguished tea expert and the visionary behind the ‘Okucha Matcha Brand.’ Khun Ariya’s unique transition from a passionate coffee enthusiast to a devoted matcha connoisseur emphasises her profound dedication. 

During the workshop, guests will learn the rich history and benefits of green tea and matcha, understand the shades between various matcha grades, and learn how to discern and appreciate the colour and quality of matcha. Guests will also discover proper stage techniques essential to maintaining the freshness and potency of the matcha, and familiarise yourself with the basic preparation knowledge using both traditional and modern matcha tools. 

The highlight will be practical brewing sessions where you will engage in hands-on preparation of Usucha, Matcha Latte, and Matcha Yuzu. These sessions will feature three distinct grades of matcha – Ceremonial, Premium, and Starter; sourced from different Japanese prefectures, allowing for a comprehensive tasting and learning experiences.
