~~NOTOC~~

👋 This is my personal little collection of notes about 茶道 and tea in general. 

====茶道====

To organise my notes, I divide 茶道 into 12 different aspects:

   * [[temae|点前]], [[chaji|茶事]] and [[keiko|お稽古]]
   * [[matcha|抹茶]] itself
   * Japanology (including tea [[history]], [[people]], [[motifs]], [[literature]] and [[poems]], [[dentougeinou|performing arts]], [[seasonality]] and [[colours]] expressed, among others, in the [[mei|御名]]).
   * [[kashi|お菓子]]
   * [[kaiseki|懐石]]
   * [[architecture]] and [[roji|路地]]
   * [[dougu|道具]], including [[hai|灰]]
   * [[textiles]]
   * [[sho|書]]
   * [[kou|お香]]
   * [[hana|花]]
   * [[philosophy]]

====工夫茶====
A little [[glossary]], some [[brewing]] advice and heaps of tasting notes:

         * [[bai]]
         * [[huang]]
         * [[matcha|抹茶]]
         * [[lu]]
         * [[oolong]]
         * [[hong]]
         * [[sheng]] puer
         * [[shou]] puer
         * other [[hei]]
         * [[aromatised]] teas
         * brewing in different [[pot]]s

====Personal====

I got a [[restricted:plan]] for how I want to become a good 茶人, including my [[calendar]] of what 点前 I practise when. I take note of the [[restricted:lessons]] I had, of [[restricted:stock|teas]] that I got waiting in my cellar and of the [[travel]]s that I took to Japan.
