The Tea Museum, Shizuoka is in the former Shimada City Ochanosato Museum (but doesn’t have a Facebook location, even though it opened in 2018). “It is located on the Makinohara Plateau, the largest tea farming region in Japan, and consists of a museum, tea ceremony house, garden, and commercial facilities.”
There was way too much information to absorb all at once all about tea and customs related to tea from all over the world, not just Japan. I loved the display with drawers and teacups. Each drawer contained leaves of different teas. You were encouraged to open the drawers and smell the aromas and touch the leaves. The teacups were clear and showed the color of the brewed tea.
