Savor Kaga-Boucha in space of tradition
The Kanazawa KOGEI Night Salon quietly accompanies the Kanazawa evening. This is a nightly Local Rhythm Night, reserved exclusively for guests of OMO5 Kanazawa Katamachi. Staff who trained directly at long-established tea houses share the history of Kaga bocha tea and the distinct character of each shop, while serving two kinds of freshly brewed tea with Kanazawa sweets. In a dreamlike space adorned with Ishikawa crafts—from Kaga mizuhiki art and beyond—immerse yourself in Kanazawa's culture through all five senses, for a truly special moment.
Highlights of the Kanazawa KOGEI Night Salon
Immerse yourself in KOGEI art
The shimmer of Kanazawa gold leaf; the delicate form of Kaga mizuhiki cordwork. This salon is appointed with authentic traditional crafts handed down by local artisans. Gold leaf glows softly in the gentle light as mizuhiki art rises into view—wrapped in the beauty that only Kanazawa's craftsmanship can create, the evening flows with quiet elegance. Savor with all five senses this world of beauty unique to Kanazawa, where tradition and the contemporary melt into one.
Tea culture in Kanazawa
Enveloped in the toasty aroma of Kaga bocha tea, our staff brew each cup carefully, right before your eyes. Trained at long-established tea houses in the neighborhood, they introduce the history of Kaga bocha, the art of roasting, and the character unique to each shop. Compare two brews—their aroma, color, and taste shifting with the leaf and the roasting time—paired with Kanazawa sweets that change with the seasons. An evening offered to our overnight guests alone.
A Moment to Savor a Special Cup
For those who wish to delve deeper into Kanazawa's culture of tea and craft. We offer tea and Japanese sweets served with carefully selected craft utensils—Kutani ware, Wajima lacquerware, and more (a paid experience, "Sakojitsu"). Feeling the painted patterns of the vessel and the sheen of the lacquer in your hands, each cup embodies the very aesthetic sense of Kanazawa. Close your travel evening with a quiet moment that touches the essence.
