Nobata Tea Salon Tekisui

The local tea culture began in the Edo period. Sokazu Kanamori, who was born as the eldest son of Kashige Kanamori, the second lord of Takayama Castle, was disinherited during the Winter Siege in Osaka and moved to Uji from Kyoto to study and establish a school known as the ``Sowa-ryu.'' ``In the world of tea, Omote-Senke, Ura-Senke, and Mushakoji-Senke are referred to as the three schools of tea.The Sowa school is a samurai tea ceremony, so there is a slight difference from these. For example, when making a tea ceremony, you don't show your palms.It means ``don't reveal your palms,'' and for this reason, it is also called a man's palm.''
