Monkō - Japán illatfigyelés
Feri – Nihon Kaori
Feri has spent years immersed in Japanese incense culture. He runs Nihon Kaori, a Budapest-based shop importing incense from Awaji Island, Kousaido, and Nippon Kodo — some of Japan’s most respected makers. At the monkō workshop, he doesn’t lecture. He simply passes the incense and makes space for quiet attention.

Program Overview
Monkō – The Japanese Art of Listening to Fragrance
Monkō — literally “listening to fragrance” — is a centuries-old Japanese practice built around a simple idea: you sit down, you go quiet, and you pay attention. Not with your ears, but with your nose.
This workshop is not aromatherapy, not meditation, and not a perfume tasting. It’s something closer to stillness with a guide. Feri passes the incense around one piece at a time, slowly, in small amounts. Your only job is to notice — what you feel, what surfaces, where your mind goes. Between each round, a cup of tea brings you back to yourself before the next scent arrives.
Thirty minutes. No expectations, no expertise required. Just you, the smoke, and whatever the present moment holds.
You take home a pack of incense — so you can return to this quiet whenever you need it.
Includes: 1 pack of incense · 1 cup of tea
