Matcha tea shop opens today on 7th Street



As previously mentioned, there's a tea shop opening at 74 E. Seventh St. between First Avenue and Second Avenue... and today is the opening day for Setsugekka...



The storefront will be a shop run by the owners of Tea-Whisk, whose aim "is to introduce the beauty of Japanese Tea Ceremony in NY."

Urasenke Tea School, a branch of the major tea ceremony school in Japan, has been in NY since the early 1960's. Located on east 69th St in what was once Rothko's studio, guests are invited to observe ceremonies at scheduled times in any of three traditional tea rooms.
