October brings the beauty of autumn and the joy of harvest to the Kansai region, where Kyoto is located.

In the Japanese tea ceremony, tea bowls often reflect the beauty and character of each season, allowing guests to experience the changing seasons even within the tea room.

For this month’s tea ceremony experience, guests were served tea using a bowl decorated with golden, ripened rice stalks, capturing the essence of autumn.

We hope you enjoy the beauty of the season as autumn deepens, accompanied by a tea bowl that reflects the abundance of the autumn countryside.
