The Origin of Matcha②

このエントリーをはてなブックマークに追加

The way we drink matcha is almost the same as the way we drink it today, but its purpose is a little different from the purpose we have today.

Zen Master Eisai introduced Matcha as a medicine.

In addition to Eisai, another person who contributed to the development of matcha in its early days was saint Myoe.

Myoe learned of the existence of tea through Eisai, and received tea seeds, which he sowed in Toganoo, a suburb of Kyoto, and successfully cultivated.
