It’s still the time of year when we want to stay in the New Year’s mood, but I’m sure there are many people who will be starting work tomorrow. Today marks the beginning of Little Cold. As one of the 24 solar terms, it is located in the middle of winter. This year, it begins on January 5th and lasts for about 15 days until the next solar term, Daikan. This period is also called Kan no Iri and is considered the beginning of the coldest time of the year. The number of days when it gets colder is increasing. The period leading up to Daikan is called “Koshogatsu” (little new year), and it is customary to eat adzuki bean porridge. It is also recommended to warm up your body by doing light exercise or using a hot water bottle before going to bed. In order to enjoy this season, such as through writing messages about winter greetings and winter training, it is special to quietly enjoy the winter atmosphere while drinking hot tea or matcha. Because it is cold, why not cherish the moments when you can feel the warmth? Wasako’s teahouse is designed with great care to create a special space. With a tea ceremony experience, you can enjoy a more leisurely time in a Japanese-style room. Outside the shop, sipping matcha in the crisp cold of Little Han will be something special. Come and enjoy a cup of hot matcha in the Wasako tea room, even though it’s cold outside, and take a deep breath to refresh your mind and body.
