Rikyu Green 利休鼠

There are not many tea experts more famous in Japan than Sen No Rikyu, one of the central reformers of the Japanese tea ceremony and perhaps its greatest teacher. Rikyū was behind the development of a tea ceremony style characterised by simple, rustic, yet highly stylised features combined with a focus on the moment; a philosophy inspired by his years of zen training. Rikyūnezumi 利休鼠, a grey-green tone, is said to have been the master's favourite colour.
