Matsue's unique afternoon tea featuring strawberry sweets and Japanese flavors. See details Matsue Excel Hotel Tokyu (Matsue City, Shimane Prefecture; General Manager: Fumiyuki Ishitobi) will hold the "Matsue Tea Ceremony Culture Afternoon Tea" at the 1st-floor restaurant "MOSORO" for a total of 8 days from April 22 (Wed) to April 26 (Sun), 2026, and May 20 (Wed) to May 24 (Sun) (excluding April 23 and May 21).

In Matsue City, April 24th, the death anniversary of Matsudaira Harusato (Fumai-ko), the seventh lord of the Matsue Domain and a renowned tea master, is designated as "Tea Ceremony Day," and the 24th of every month is a day to appreciate tea ceremony culture. In conjunction with this day, our hotel has planned an afternoon tea that combines Matsue's vibrant tea ceremony culture with the unique culinary charm of the hotel. Through spring strawberry-themed sweets, Japanese savories prepared by our head chef, and high-grade Japanese sweets from long-established Matsue confectioneries, you can enjoy Matsue's food culture during a relaxed tea time.

This event, where you can experience tea ceremony culture, is recommended not only for locals to enjoy a relaxed tea time but also for tourists visiting Matsue to create memories, and for use on girls' trips.

"Strawberry Catalana" Finished Right Before Your Eyes The highlight sweet we offer is the "Strawberry Catalana." Our staff will caramelize the surface with a burner right at your table, finishing it with a fragrant crispness. This main sweet offers a live experience, combining the crispy texture of caramel, the cool and rich catalana, and the sweet-sour taste of strawberries.
