Activity
Matcha incense is made in Uji, Kyoto, the birthplace of luxury matcha green tea.
Incense made with matcha (powdered green tea), a material very rarely used in incense.
Since the wooden molds used for making sweets are used to mold the incense, the incense is as pretty like Japanese sweets.
This activity comes with a free special incense burner (JPY 5,060 tax included). With the special incense burner, you can enjoy the aroma of tea in your home.
It can be folded and is small and compact, so it is easy to carry.
