Matcha is not just a bright green powder: it is an ancient path to harmony, a ritual of beauty and mindfulness that spans centuries of Japanese history.
During the Creative Many Factory at Manifattura Tabacchi, Bottega Biologica and the Japanese cultural association Iroha invite you to slow down, breathe, and let yourself be guided into this universe of silence, deliberate gestures, and profound flavors.
The workshop will be led by Yoko Shimada, artist and tea ceremony master, and president of the Iroha Association, who will take us on a journey combining culture, craftsmanship, and nature.
