2nd Anniversary Event: “Gahojin”

On 22 October, Baisa Nakamura reached its second anniversary.

“Gahojin” is a phrase about the preciousness of one person meeting another. We have long held it up as the spirit of Baisa Nakamura, and looking back over these two years at this milestone, the shop and our events have brought us a great many encounters.
We are grateful all over again to have met you.

That we can enter a third year is entirely thanks to you. Thank you once more.

We will be holding our second anniversary event over three days next month, Friday 15 to Sunday 17 November. In the shop we will brew teas from the many tea makers we have met since opening.

Sencha, black tea, oolong, semi-oxidised teas, tencha, pan-fired tea, flavoured tea and more — a great many tea makers have provided leaf for us.

On each day we will divide opening hours into three sittings, and each sitting will serve teas from a different set of makers. Five teas per sitting; twenty-five teas in all, arranged into five courses, A to E. Which course comes up when is part of the fun on the day.

Along with the leaf itself, we will tell you about each maker and share some of the stories behind them.

For this anniversary we have also been supplied with “SHUKA”, a new kind of seed confection made from nothing but seeds and sugar, by Torokuya, a long-established amanatto specialist in Kyoto. Please enjoy the pairing of tea and SHUKA, available only at this anniversary event.

If we are busy, customers with reservations will be given priority.
