Ooo now I want to go to Nikkō to continue tracing tea trader history - visited Glover Gardens in Nagasaki a few years back after reading the excellent “Green with Milk and Sugar: When Japan Filled America’s Tea Cups”Book by Robert Hellyer.

Thanks for taking the time to put this together 🙌

Thank you! I was trying to do something different than your average travel diary, glad it resonated.
