Let’s enjoy the fun of Shizuoka tea! Shizuoka tea x sweets pairing

Enjoy afternoon tea

Afternoon tea is popular in Japan

Afternoon tea is a coffee culture that originated from the customs of the British aristocracy. The traditional British style is to enjoy sweets such as sandwiches, scones, and cakes served on a three-tiered plate while chatting with tea.

In Japan, the activity of enjoying afternoon tea in hotel lounges is becoming a trend. Recently, the movement of “Noon-katsu” and “Noon-cha” has been spreading in cafes and restaurants.
