Matcha Whisking Workshop

Whisk, taste, and master Uji matcha in an intimate Seattle tea room workshop!



1 hour Location Beacon Hill Class size 1 to 5 guests   $40

There's something deeply satisfying about slowing down long enough to whisk a creamy, frothy bowl of Uji matcha -- and this monthly workshop at EWCC is your invitation to do exactly that!
Whether you're hunting for fresh date ideas, looking for team building activities that go beyond the usual, or just searching for genuinely fun things to do in Seattle, this class delivers warmth and hands-on goodness in equal measure. You'll start with a brief tour of our beautiful tea rooms and, time allowing, witness how matcha is ceremonially offered -- no prior knowledge needed, no pressure, just curiosity welcome. From there, you'll move into the galley kitchen where you'll learn to whisk your very own frothy bowl of tea. Think of it as learning how to make matcha the right way, with real Uji leaves and real guidance beside you every step.
This is one of those birthday party ideas that actually surprises people, a cozy solo adventure, or simply a meaningful pause in a busy week. You'll leave knowing how to taste, prepare, store, and receive matcha -- and with a new appreciation for why so many people consider EWCC home to some of the best matcha in Seattle!

In 2022, the East-West Chanoyu Center (EWCC) leased a suite in the Japanese Cultural and Community Center of Washington (JCCCW), home to the historic Seattle Japanese Language School. The JCCCW has been a central hub for Japanese culture and heritage since the early 20th century, and EWCC is honored to share the rich tradition of Chanoyu with the JCCCW community and beyond. Construction of the new tearooms began in September 2022.
In 2023, the East-West Chanoyu Center (EWCC) installed an 8-tatami mat room, a 4.5 tatami mat room, a galley kitchen, a foyer, and an attic, and in July resumed its tea classes and activities.
The Zuishin’an tearooms proudly stand as the first public tearooms in the Pacific Northwest to offer year-round access to interactive tea ceremonies, workshops, and classes for both one-time audiences and dedicated tea practitioners.
