These teas aren’t just beverages; they’re an invitation to slow down, to savor, and to connect with a tradition that spans centuries.

Would you like to know more about their origins or brewing tips? We’d love to share.

The first breaths of spring in #Japan are carried by its #teas : each leaf telling a story of tradition, craftsmanship, and the land it comes from.
We’re thrilled to introduce our new arrivals!

Hiire #Sencha : a roasted green tea, fragrant and aromatic, perfect for those who love depth in their cup.

#Kabusecha Okumidori by Sueyoshi Tea: a rare, shade-grown tea from Kagoshima, offering a sweet, umami-rich experience.

Organic Black & Oolong Teas: bold, complex, and cultivated with care.

It is ideal for anyone who wants to enjoy the Japanese tea ritual with an authentic, historically grounded, and visually striking object. 🍵

It is renowned for its simple, natural forms, subtle glazes, and refined aesthetic. Hagi ceramics are one of the three major traditional Japanese pottery styles used in the tea ceremony, alongside Raku from #Kyoto and Karatsu from Saga.
Each piece reflects the philosophy of wabi-sabi, celebrating imperfection, natural beauty, and the tactile experience of tea.

This particular cup is a one-of-a-kind piece, combining centuries of tradition with the mastery of a contemporary ceramicist.

At Ikiya #Tearoom, we carefully select unique ceramics and tea accessories from all over #Japan . We personally visits producers and workshops, study their techniques, and choose pieces that represent the highest level of craftsmanship.

Today, we feature a Hagi ceramic #tea cup/glass, made by Master Kunisuke Nakahara (中原 國輔). Hagi-yaki (萩焼) is a Japanese pottery tradition originating from Hagi in Yamaguchi Prefecture, with a history of over 400 years.

@labrezza grazie per il post! ❤️
For our first official #SilentSunday on the #Fediverse, we would like to take you to the wonderful Yoshimine-dera in #Kyoto, where we took this picture last year in June, during the hydrangea season. Less well-known than other temples, it overlooks Kyoto from the west, on the opposite side from Kiyomizu-dera, which is much more famous (and crowded).
We had the privilege to visit it during different seasons, and enjoy its silence, its history and its amazing view. A must-see if you’re in Kyoto.
@Iizuki thank you so much! The location is perfect, thank you again 😊
@amblergee hi! 😃
@girlbandgeek @phocks Venice is always nice, but Treviso is less crowded. If you're looking for a nice and cozy city, I would definetly recommend to stay here. And visit us for a tea, obviously 😀
