In this event, various tea devotees will provide the variety of worldwide teas in respective styles. Of course, Japanese teas will be served in the traditional and modern Japanese styles.

The mastercraftsman served “Susuri Cha”.  In this manner, tea constituents are extracted in a little amount of water ( about 10ml ). So we can enjoy richness of umami and aroma of Japanese green tea.

 

Tea farmers, tea processors and tea wholesalers served their flagship products.
