From January 4, 2022, we will accept reservations for “Uji Matcha Chocolat Macaron” from Itohkyuemon, which has a store in Uji, Kyoto, which is famous for its high-class tea.
The first new dessert in 2022 is a cake-like “chocolate macaron” that is made by sandwiching a special ganache and coating it with chocolate.
Considering the compatibility of matcha and strawberries, chocolate is a blend of Belgian and domestic products. White chocolate is added to matcha and bitter chocolate is added to strawberries to enhance each taste. The crispy texture of chocolate, the crispy macaron dough, and the soft ganache that melts in your mouth are exquisite, a new Valentine’s gift for 2022.

Hoshinoya Tokyo, a Japanese-style inn located in Otemachi, Tokyo, will again this year host the “New Year Kabuki Stay” program, a two-day and one-night stay from January 5 to 26, 2024.
For people living in Edo, one of their New Year’s pleasures was to watch Kabuki, and it was a chic way to spend the New Year. Theatrical teahouses supported this way of enjoying Kabuki. In addition to arranging tickets to the theater, the teahouses delighted patrons by providing a complete range of services, including plot notes, tea, sweets, makunouchi box lunches, and snacks and drinks (*1). Hoshinoya Tokyo offers a stay to celebrate the New Year with hospitality similar to the theatrical teahouses of the time.
