Introducing the "hybrid" Sencha-Houjicha tea! "Kachi-kachi Yama". The leaves have been ever so lightly roasted to give the tea a toasty flavour while keeping it green. It's a unique flavour that you've probably not tried before! 😊 #japanesegreentea #halifaxnovascotia #quinpool #halifax

Introducing our new Genmaicha! This is a mix of sencha tea, puff-roasted brown rice, matcha & roasted black soybean. The brown rice in this tea has been roasted 4x (when normally it's just 1x) to bring out the best toasty flavour. <cont 1/2>

One of our students recently shared some Japanese Anemone flowers from her garden. They were a beautiful light purple-pink bloom. Also love how dense and firm the leaves were! #ikebana #sogetsu #Halifax #Quinpool

"Akabeko" is a traditional papier-maché craft from the Aizu region (Fukushima Prefecture) featuring a red cow with a bobbing head. In the old days, before modern medicine, it was believed that the charm protected against smallpox. #halifaxnovascotia #quinpool #halifax
