A Summer Japanese Tea Experience Event in Minamiyamashiro Village
[Guests Only]
On Saturday, August 22, we will host a summer Japanese tea experience event exclusively for guests staying at Fairfield by Marriott Kyoto Minamiyamashiro.
Minamiyamashiro Village, known as Kyoto Prefecture’s only village, is famed for its beautiful scenery of tea fields bathed in gentle sunlight and is one of the leading tea-producing areas in The whole country. For this event, we welcome Japanese Tea Instructor Mika Hasegawa to present a program themed around “cold-brewed tea,” perfect for hot August days. From how to brew cold tea using locally grown Minamiyamashiro tea leaves to easy at-home variations using syrups and more, you’ll discover a wide range of refreshing ways to enjoy Japanese tea.
At the adjacent roadside station “Ocha no Kyoto Minamiyamashiro Village,” matcha sweets and drinks made with local tea leaves are especially popular. Enjoy unique offerings available only here, feel closer to Japan’s rich tea culture, and experience the distinctive climate and character of Minamiyamashiro Village during your stay.
