I am traveling to Uji Kyoto Japan and I’m very interested in having a retreat involving Buddhism and teas, especially Matcha Green Tea. I want to get away maybe in a Temple and get the whole Zen experience.

I was not able to find any Zen temples in Uji that run any regular events, but apparently there is a Kyoto-based yoga instructor called Azusa Morishima who organizes occasional retreats at a "secret temple" there. Here's a Facebook post about a previous event, which sounds exactly like what you're looking for (experiencing a monk's life, tea sampling, overnight stay), and per this Instagram post, her next session will be on April 14, 2019.
