About the print with the rabbit and frog: Chōjū-jinbutsu-giga, literally "Animal Caricatures", is a famous set of four picture scrolls belonging to Kozan-ji temple in Kyoto. These are playful images that we rarely see and this tea farm can use these images because the temple loves their tea.
How to enjoy:
1. Take a spoon full of matcha powder and place it in the bowl.
2. Pour 80°c - 70°c water over the matcha. Boiling water will ruin the matcha so make sure the water has cooled.
3. Hold the bowl firmly with one hand and whisk vigorously with the other for about 15 seconds, making an "M" or "W" shape movement.
4. When small foam appears on the surface, the matcha is ready

Japan-Best is first and foremost a story about Japanese craftsmen with the influence of contemporary design. We are inspired by the timeless beauty of traditional Japanese craftsmanship, and their ability to adapt to our modern lifestyle. The more brands we meet, the more passionate we become about the stories behind each product; the skills of the craftsmen, or the long tradition of an object left unchanged for generations yet somehow remaining contemporary.
Japan-Best is a collection of Japanese brands, which we have selected for the originality of their design, the quality of their production, the fact that their production is “Made in Japan”, and the long history that they maintain, quite often for several generations.
Our selection of Japanese food is also based on craftsmanship in agriculture. We choose brands based on how they are made and we love brands that continue to use traditional natural techniques to grow food and prepare it. Good packaging and design is always and added joy to find!
