Great experience! - Beautifully organized and explained! I should have asked Hana about the history of nerikiri, I’m sure she’s super knowledgeable as she’s an historian.

Relaxing and interesting experience - I had an amazing time learning how to make these sweets which have interested me since my last trip to Japan. The host was very gracious having me in her lovely home. The location was easy to find and in an iconic area I enjoyed exploring afterwards. I got to take home 4 sweets and enjoyed matcha and other traditional goodies from around Japan. Highly recommended

Fun and memorable experience - We really enjoyed making the nerikiri and learning about the tea ceremony. Hana was a skilled and friendly teacher. We started by picking a few designs based on Hana's advice on what might be most beginner-friendly, and then made them using ingredients that she had prepared and portioned out for each individual for convenience. Making the nerikiri consisted of basic assembly, gentle hand molding, and use of a few wooden/bamboo tools to imprint specific features. It takes a bit of a delicate touch to get a refined product and we weren't always successful, but we had a lot of fun throughout the process and honestly found our more humorous outcomes to be more endearing in a way. Afterwards, we participated in a tea ceremony that was accompanied by a variety of snacks. Very cool to learn about all of the nuances of that process. Highly recommend as an overall fun, hands-on, and educational experience.

Delightful Sweet Treats - This was such a wonderful experience making delicious Japanese sweets and taking part in a traditional tea ceremony. Hana was a wonderful instructor and a delightful person to get to know! The sweets we made were so pretty you almost didn’t want to eat them. I would highly recommend this experience!

Wonderful Lesson! - My husband and I took this lesson! It was very fun. We made 4 different Nerikiri, learned how to perform the tea ceremony, and tried several Japanese treats! The instructors English was very good, so definitely feel welcome to book this if you don't speak any Japanese!

Don't miss this unique experience - Would highly recommend this experience! I had a wonderfully fun and tasty time, Hana-San was the most welcoming host and teacher.

Great for all ages and personalities! - Our family of four (2 adults, and kids ages 14 and 10) loved this experience. The location is great, lots to do around it. It was fun to be in our host’s lovely home. We learned to make very beautiful sweets and could choose from a variety of styles to suit wach of our personalities. Highly recommend!

What an experience!! - Thank You Hanna for being so patient with my 7 and 12 yo Mother and kids had a lot of fun learning how to make nerikiri and tea ceremony

What a treat!! - Hi Hana! What a wonderful experience! We so appreciated your accommodating our delayed arrival and your willingness to keep our appointment. It was so much fun making the Nerikiri, learning about the tea ceremony and meeting and speaking with you.. We even made it home with half our sweets, the kids just had to eat theirs :). Take care and THANK YOU!!

Great experience and good for families or friends. - Hana was an amazing host! Very patient, great product and instructions. Finished our time off with a traditional tea ceremony including other Japanese sweets and snacks. Hana’s English is very good so we were able to ask lots of questions about Japanese culture as well. I would highly recommend Hana’s class!
