CHASEN offers Japanese-inspired sweets, dishes, and tea beverages in Kyoto’s Kodaiji area and SAKURA MACHI Kumamoto.

Chasen & our tea

Rooted in Japanese aesthetics, we bring together selected tea leaves, refined sweets, and carefully prepared dishes in a warm, welcoming space.

Our name reflects our wish to make Japanese tea culture and the beauty of Japanese flavors feel closer to everyday life.

Yoshida Meichaen

Most of our tea leaves are sourced from Yoshida Meichaen, a trusted tea producer. Carefully selected and crafted with respect for tradition, every cup reflects the dedication behind each leaf.
