箸作り体験

CHOPSTICK MAKING

和食には欠かせない箸を旅の思い出にぜひ手作りしてみませんか?
季節ごとに異なる約10種類の中から木材を1つ選びます。
選んだ木材をかんなで削り、最後にオイルを塗ってコーティングします。
心を込めて作った手作りお箸で食べる食事は、きっと特別な時間に変わります。

Create your own chopsticks, a traditional part of Japanese dining, as a memento of your trip.
Choose one piece of wood from around 10 different seasonal varieties.
The wood you choose is then planed and finally coated with oil.
Your handmade chopsticks turn an ordinary meal into a special time.

We have a wide variety of wood that changes with each season, so you can have fun choosing your favorite wood from among them.
In addition to familiar woods such as Hinoki (Japanese cypress), Sugi (cedar), and Sakura (cherryblossom), we also have Shimakokutan (the wood used for high-quality chopsticks) and vibrant woods such as Orange and Purpleheart.
We offer this experience to children for 1,480 JPY.
