PLAN

Making Japanese sweets and tea ceremony

You can learn the depth of the artisanal techniques and wagashi from a master confectioner trained in Kyoto. The confectionery you make will be given to you as a souvenir and served with tea.

In session

 

 

Why don't you experience making seasonal namagashi and classic namagashi (2 types, 4 pieces) at "Iwamotoji" shukubo?
"Beginners are welcome !!!"
・ What you are used to seeing may change!The easier it looks, the harder it is!
・ A Japanese sweets craftsman (“SHOUKAKU-DO” owner: trained at a long-established store in Kyoto) will guide you slowly and carefully.
・ Namagashi and a cup of tea at "SHOUKAKU-DO" in front of the Iwamotoji gate
・ "SHOUKAKU-DO" also sells sweets such as "Sandoguri" and "Sakuragai" that appear in Iwamotoji Kobo Daishi Seven Mysteries.

 


◆ Sandoguri

Kobo Daishi sang a song for children who want to eat chestnuts many times instead of once a year.
Then, the chestnut tree became low so that it was easy for children to take, and it began to bear fruit three times a year.
Also, chestnuts are sweet and squid is soft.

 

◆ Sakuragai

Daishi planted cherry blossoms on the beach near Iwamoto Temple.
However, when the Daishi visited again a few years later, the cherry blossoms were scattered.
When Daishi sang a song, the shellfish on the beach turned into a cherry blossom.
