The Japanese tea ceremony, known as chanoyu or sadō, is a traditional ritual that
involves preparing and serving matcha green tea following precise, codified gestures. It's
not just about drinking tea: it's an art of living that expresses harmony (wa), respect (kei),
purity (sei) and tranquility (jaku). The ceremony highlights the beauty of the objects
(bowls, utensils, flowers) and the moment shared between host and guests.
