* Please note that this book is written in Japanese only.

In this charming book, Miyako Watanabe, the wife of the proprietor of Ippodo Tea, shares little day-to-day happenings related to Japanese tea and life in Kyoto.

Ideal for reading at a relaxed, leisurely pace while savoring your tea, the author highlights little events that tend to be overlooked in busy, modern-day lives, such as neighborhood festivals, flowers of the fields and mountains, and the inviting smell of dinner that greets Ippodo staff as they leave the store. Also delightful are the beautiful illustrations by Izumi Shiokawa.
