TEAROOM
Our intimate six-seat counter-style tearoom is located in a 100-year-old Kyoto town house. The building stands immediately above a rich vein of groundwater which has been regarded as one of the finest in Kyoto for centuries.
We boil water freshly drawn from our own well, put the tea leaves in an earthen teapot, and brew the tea in front of you.
You can choose from a wide range of unique organic Japanese teas, including different cultivars produced in different regions by different farming and processing methods, as well as teas from different fields and harvest years. On our teashop website you can find detailed information about the different teas, we offer.
All our teas are organically grown. Only 6% of all the tea produced in Japan is grown by organic farming. To serve you characterful, individual teas, we work directly together with small tea farmers all over Japan.
Each tea is special and we strive to brew each one in a way that will bring out the best of its character. Please enjoy the subtle changes of flavor through several infusions.
