Description
Around the world people share a deep love for tea. Even the word for tea โ โchaโ โ is widely shared.
Within this common love, drinking tea has local rituals and customs that make it an important part of local culture. Perhaps none expresses its admiration for tea more than Japan, where for centuries Matcha has been an essential part of daily life for Zen monks.
Indeed, Matcha has its very own ceremony and house! The โhouseโ is often a simple room constructed by the monks or Samurai. In harmony with Zen philosophy it is a home of serenity and tranquillity. This special place is called the โchashitsuโ (่ถๅฎค).
Cha-shitsu translates to โtea roomโ. It is from this word that we take our name.
