As the survey by the Japanese organization, Most Japanese tea maker could live long. So, Japanese tea is important for the Japanese, especially the heavy pressure gave by the workers now in the fast development of Japan.

The philosophy meanings of Japanese tea  is "一期一会".  "一" means one. Like one time. "期" means life.  And “会 ”means meeting, like gathering together and having tea ceremony. Japanese tea maker believe that the meeting is happen now. It just happen only  once in everyone's life. So, everyone should cherish the time they are having tea ceremony. Everyone could gather together again, but the things would totally different. cause the time has different, and everyone was different as the time goes.

Japanese tea mascots

Almost everything in Japan have their own mascots. They are advertisements of their goods and events.

                                            "Yamecha-maru" is the mascot of their tea.

The Japanese tea circle want to make more Japanese walk in tea garden and having tea ceremony. While, as the fast development of Japan, Japanese people getting busy. Less people would like to go for the ceremony like before.  So,    "Yamecha-maru"  as the mascot of Japanese tea have the function of advertising for the Japanese tea culture.
