Step into the world of Javanese healing and heritage in this jamu-making workshop, hosted in a place rich with history. Enter the ancestral home of Pak Rudi, a direct descendant of the royal herbalist who once served the Kraton (Palace) of Yogyakarta.

For over 70 years — since the 1950s — this sacred family recipe, once reserved only for the royal family, has been lovingly shared with the public. But the lineage goes back much further: the knowledge and methods are turun-temurun (passed down through generations), rooted in ancient Javanese wisdom.

Unlike modern, mass-produced jamu, experience the traditional process in its purest form. Use a lesung (mortar and pestle) to pound fresh herbs and roots by hand. Grind with volcanic stone tools that are decades, even centuries old, all in the serene setting of a family compound that echoes with royal secrets.

Create your own jamu and taste five different types, each with its own function — from energy boosting to digestion to inner beauty. This isn’t just a workshop — it’s a journey into the soul of Java.
