Aoyama
Sakurai Japanese Tea Experience
On the fifth floor of the Spiral building, Shinya Sakurai's tea laboratory pairs a retail counter with a ten-seat tea salon designed by Shinichiro Ogata. Staff in white coats work like technicians, roasting hojicha in-house and building multi-course tea flights that move through gyokuro, seasonal blends and a bowl of thin matcha with wagashi. Courses start around 4,800 yen; a bar menu of tea-based cocktails runs later on weekdays. Monthly tasting seminars cover single themes, matcha among them. Reservations through TableCheck are advisable given the counter's size, and the room is unusually quiet for central Aoyama.
