2026 月猿虎 新茶会@清平寺
皆さまお疲れさまでした！
Earlier this week we held our 5th annual New Tea Party at Seiheiji Temple. A celebration of kimono👘 and the fresh new tea🍵grown in the temple garden🌱 paired with a variety of sweets, treats and teas, then finished off with 西の杜matcha from Nishio.
Fumi-san performed a chill-inducing contemporary marimba piece that made this an unforgettable day 👏🏻
and everyone looked fabulous in kimono 🔥 we’re creating beauty and peace together, via kimono and tea 💚
Thank you to , the local tourist association for coming out to take the group photo 🙏🏻
Thank you to all the members who made this a fun and beautiful day🙏🏻
Extra special thanks to Esho and Fumi for sharing their time, space, talents and tea 🙏🏻
