Field notes

The page distinguishes a roughly two-hour workshop from a one-hour morning sitting scheduled for 8:30–9:30. It says the paste is prepared by hand in small batches before guests arrive, and that Kashiwaya guests can receive free transport for the morning session. The page provides WhatsApp, LINE, and email contacts for reservations, but the supplied extract does not show prices.
