DID YOU KNOW? ... Over a thousand years ago, the priest Saicho brought the first shipment of tea from China to Japan. Kissa Yokoji wrote in 1191: ‘Tea is a marvellous medicine for health and an elixir for long life. In ancient and modern times, tea is the elixir that leads us on the path to immortality.’ Initially, the drink was associated with the nobility, but during the Edo period (1603-1868), tea ceremonies and all associated elements, such as the cast-iron teapots, became popular throughout Japan. Today, green tea is part of the Japanese soul and is enjoyed at any time of day.
