Japanese Tea Tasting Workshop for Professionals
Discover the Art of Japanese Tea and Its Potential for Your Business
Japanese tea is far more than a beverage – it is a refined cultural experience that brings together mindfulness, aesthetics, and hospitality. In our dedicated Japanese Tea Tasting Workshop for Professionals, you and your team are invited to explore the unique world of Japanese green tea and learn how it can elevate the guest experience in your hotel, spa or restaurant.
A Curated Journey Through Japanese Tea
During this hands-on session, participants will discover the diversity of Japanese teas – from the vibrant freshness of Sencha to the rich umami of Gyokuro and the calming effect of GABA Gyokuro. You will learn what distinguishes each variety, and more importantly, where and how these teas can be integrated meaningfully into your guest offering.
This workshop is especially tailored for professionals in high-end service environments, including luxury hotels, wellness resorts, and fine gastronomy establishments. Whether you work in F&B, guest relations or spa services, this experience will inspire new ideas for refined and health-conscious guest offerings.
Brewing: The Crucial Difference
Unlike black tea, herbal infusions, or even Oolong, the brewing method of Japanese green tea requires particular care and knowledge. Water temperature, amount of leaves, steeping time – all these factors directly influence the taste. Gyokuro in particular is delicate and can taste entirely different depending on preparation. We will guide you step by step through the proper techniques, so that you can offer an authentic and satisfying tea experience every time.
Integrating Japanese Tea Into Your Service
Throughout the workshop, we will also present and discuss various occasions where Japanese tea can enhance your guest journey:
• Premium add-on to Afternoon Tea: Introduce a rare and elegant alternative with Gyokuro or GABA Gyokuro for tea connoisseurs.
• Relaxing tea ritual upon arrival: Offer guests a warm, calming welcome drink at check-in or in the spa lounge.
• In-room tea experience: A refined touch of Japanese hospitality as part of your room service or minibar.
• Bar & Mixology inspiration: Use our naturally caffeine-rich Gyokuro powder to develop signature tea-based mocktails or cocktails.
These and other tailor-made ideas can be explored together to fit your concept, your audience, and your brand philosophy.
