日本煎茶の世界は、中國明代にはじまった工夫茶が原点です。
日本に渡った茶文化は、江戸時代、文人庶民の間で発展し、
もう１つの日本の茶文化として煎茶道が確立しました。
煎茶道は中国人のおおらかさと日本人の細やかな気質を受け継いています。
Harmonizing 18th-century literati culture with ZEN philosophy,
our Sencha tea ceremonies were created by the buddhist monk Baisao.
The world of Japanese Sencha originated with Coungou Tea from the Ming Dynasty of China (1368 – 1644).
The culture of tea ceremonies was brought to Japan during the Edo Period (1603 – 1867),
were it spread among the literati and developed into Japan’s Sencha tea tradition a mixture of the relaxed Chinese tea culture and the intricate Japanese easthetic sense.
