At Nohga Hotel Ueno, we have been interacting with each other since the opening, such as having Nisshin Precious Metals make original silver glasses for use in restaurants and cooperating in holding a silver product experience workshop. The experience planning had to be postponed due to the Korona-ka, but we have decided to resume the collaboration planning in order to meet the recent tourism demand and experience demand. Also, from the desire to experience not only manufacturing but also the splendor of silverware itself, we plan an experience of using an ice spoon and a tea drinking comparison experience, and for tea, select NAKAMURA TEA LIFE STORE, which has been collaborating since the opening. I decided to ask.
At Nohga Hotel Ueno, we will continue to build new lifestyles together with our customers while proposing experiences that have never been experienced before and experiences that can only be experienced by Ueno through workshops born from deep ties with the local community.
| [Overview of experience event (workshop)] |
■ Part 1 : Silver original accessory making experience
The color and texture of sterling silver, which is made over time, has a special appeal. As a gift for your loved ones, a memorial to your trip, or a reward for yourself, why not try making one of the only original silver accessories in the world?
The craftsmen will carefully guide you using the tools actually used in the workshop. Please experience the craftsmanship that has been passed down through the ages at the special workshop in the hotel.
* You can choose your favorite accessories from rings, bangles, and pendants, make them, and take them home.
■ Part 2: 999 Sterling Silver Ice Spoon Experience
We will prepare the special ice cream provided by Bistro NOHGA in a "tick" state.
An ice spoon that makes use of the special product of sterling silver, which has the highest thermal conductivity of all metals. It quickly melts the surface of the ice cream at the temperature of your own hands, so you can experience the feel and sensation that you cannot experience with a regular spoon. Please try the best bite of sterling silver spoon.
* 999 Sterling silver: Indicates that the purity of silver is 99.9% or higher. "999 (three nines)" is
It is a number that indicates that 999/1000 is silver at a fraction of 1000.
■ Part 3 : NAKAMURA TEA LIFE STORE Carefully Selected, New Tea Silverware Drinking Comparison Experience
Shincha (Ichibancha) uses the nutrients stored in the branches and leaves during the winter, and grows slowly in low temperatures over a long period of time, so it contains theanine (a type of amino acid), which is a sweet and umami ingredient. It contains more than three times as much as bancha and contains less catechins and caffeine, so you can enjoy a refreshing and refreshing taste.
Let's compare the new tea that NAKAMURA TEA LIFE STORE confidently recommends with a regular glass and a silver bowl.
For a drink comparison, Mr. Nishigata of NAKAMURA TEA LIFE STORE, who selected the new tea for this project, is also a surprising project for the first time.
Why don't you actually experience and see how the appearance, taste and flavor will change?
