They arrange high grade matchas in modern style and provide them as a menu such as matcha latte.

Therefore people can feel a change of the seasons by walking around the shop and choose which season would be perfect to enjoy the tea break depending on their mood.<br>In addition we apply images of four seasons to the space, printed on a special transparent paper to make people feel a change of the seasons.<br><br><br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Photos by Keisuke Miyamoto<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>nana&#8217;s green tea UENO MARUITokyo, Japan \/ 2012 &#8220;The four seasons&#8221; Nanaha Corporation is a co [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":10157,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_locale":"en_US","_original_post":"http:\/\/kamitopen.com\/wp\/?p=2532"},"categories":[3],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/kamitopen.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2536"}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/kamitopen.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/kamitopen.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/kamitopen.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/kamitopen.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2536"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"http:\/\/kamitopen.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2536\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":7544,"href":"http:\/\/kamitopen.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2536\/revisions\/7544"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/kamitopen.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/10157"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/kamitopen.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2536"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/kamitopen.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2536"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/kamitopen.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2536"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
