Black tea that slowly matures in a whiskey barrel. The years have brought about a mellow and gentle mouthfeel. The name of the special black tea created by TeaRoom is “THE CASK AGING”. It is a tea that you want to enjoy slowly, forgetting your daily busyness.
Japanese black tea that has been carefully aged in the barrel used to produce Japanese whiskey.
On top of the moist sweetness of the base Japanese black tea, the rich and fruity aroma that soaks into the barrel spreads fluffy. You can enjoy a new sense of tea experience that makes you feel drunk and not get drunk.
How to brew:
Pour 150cc of boiling water into a mug.
Gently put in one tea bag.
Spend 2 minutes slowly while smelling the scent.
Shake the tea bag up and down twice and gently pull it out.

The Hiroshima Museum of Art is hosting the exhibition “ZIPANGU: Contemporary Artists Who Defined the Heisei Era” (November 2, 2024 – December 22, 2024). This showcase brings together works by some of the most prominent figures in Japan’s contemporary art scene, including Yayoi Kusama, Takashi Murakami, Makoto Aida, Yoshitomo Nara, Chiharu Shiota, Izumi Kato, Akira Yamaguchi, and Miwa Komatsu. The exhibition has already garnered significant attention, exceeding 10,000 visitors.
HYAKKEI covered the dialogue between contemporary artist Takashi Murakami and Sueo Mizuma, the curator of this exhibition, held at the RIHGA Royal Hotel Hiroshima. We also conducted an exclusive interview with Mr. Mizuma.
The discussions centered on the aspirations behind the ZIPANGU exhibition and offered forward-looking insights, not only into Japan’s art world but also into the rediscovery of value within Japanese culture by its people.
