The Art of the Tea Box: A Unique Experience
A Journey in Miniature

The Chabako is a true masterpiece of portable beauty. Originally designed for travelers to enjoy tea on the go, it contains everything needed for the tea ceremony within a single, elegant wooden box. You are about to witness a unique, meditative choreography: the host will unpack the miniature, silk-wrapped utensils, prepare a bowl of matcha with precise, rhythmic movements, and finally restore everything to perfect order. 

A Summer Treasure
The specific style is called Unohana, named after the delicate white flower that heralds the early summer. While this ritual is traditionally reserved for the warmer months, we have chosen to perform it today because of its exceptional, rare beauty. Even as we transition into the autumn season, we invite you to experience this "summer breeze"—a timeless, intimate performance that is rarely showcased in this way. We hope you enjoy this moment of harmony and tranquility.
