A Gentle Pause in a Busy Day

Creating Small Moments of Happiness with Japanese Tea and Hasami Ware**

What the Omachikane Set hopes to deliver is a small moment of joy,
a quiet pause in your busy day — a moment of “waiting” that feels comforting rather than hurried.
Today, we’d like to share the story behind the two main elements of the set: Japanese tea and Hasami Ware.

1. Premium Japanese Tea from Three Renowned Regions

To bring out a flavor that feels as comforting as loose-leaf tea brewed in a teapot,
we carefully selected tea from three of Japan’s most celebrated tea regions:

Yame, Fukuoka:
Rich umami and natural sweetness nurtured by soft sunlight and morning mist.

Chiran, Kagoshima:
Fragrant, refreshing, and perfectly balanced — a favorite among tea lovers around the world.

Ureshino, Saga:
Mellow, rounded flavor with a gentle sweetness that soothes the senses.

Each region has its own character, yet all share a beautiful balance of umami, aroma, and smooth drinkability — the hallmark of Omachikane tea.

2. Hasami Ware Plates That Blend Seamlessly Into Modern Living

For the plate included in the set, we chose Hasami Ware,
a craft from Nagasaki with over 400 years of history.
While deeply traditional, Hasami Ware’s clean, modern aesthetic fits perfectly with today’s lifestyle.

Design:
A vibrant, modern color palette that complements both Western and Japanese dishes.

Ease of use:
Lightweight, durable, dishwasher-safe, and stackable for effortless storage.

Everyday beauty:
Simple enough for daily use, yet brightens the table the moment you set it down.

3. Why Pair “Japanese Tea × Hasami Ware”?

Brewing tea in a quiet moment.
Placing a sweet treat on a favorite plate.
Though they come from different traditions, both offer gentle experiences that help calm and center the heart.

Our hope is that the Omachikane Set becomes a small “happiness switch” in your everyday life —
a moment worth waiting for.
