Why are Japanese tea dates expensive?

Japanese tea jujube is expensive because of its low yield, good quality, rich nutrition, difficult storage, inconvenient transportation and high cost. Japanese matcha inherited the tea ordering method of China in Song Dynasty. Matcha is made by steaming tea leaves, drying them, crushing them to remove impurities such as veins, and then chiseling them into powder with a mortar. Tea jujube is a kind of tea set specially used to hold tea powder. Generally painted with wood, it is one of the thin tea sets in Japanese matcha. The origin of this name is China's "jujube". Because its shape is similar to that in a tea set, it is called "jujube". Japanese tea ceremony has many rules. Making tea is self-evident, and as a guest, you should also abide by the rules. Strong tea and weak tea have different tea tasting rules. The drinking method of strong tea is that the host and guests drink it first, and then pass the tea bowl to the next person in turn. This pattern of guests drinking a bowl of tea together is not suitable for tea parties with a large number of people. Thin tea is generally used for tea parties or Zen temple receptions with a large number of people, and each guest has a bowl of thin tea. Jujube is an essential tea set in Japanese tea ceremony. Since the prevalence of tea ceremony, many famous painters have been born, so they are called "paintings" because lacquerware has to be painted over and over again. From the era of Takenoshou, famous painters have made clear records. Lundaotu originated in the Kuanwen period of the Edo period and has a history of more than 600 years. It is the top lacquerware in traditional Japanese lacquerware. Wood blanks are mainly used for production. After more than 70 fine processes, a lot of paint was used, which took several months. Combined with painting, sinking gold and other techniques, the appearance is gorgeous, noble and exquisite.
