Inspired by the gentle wisdom of our grandmothers, Tea Time with Obāchan invites you to slow down and savor this cherished ritual with your loved ones. The gift bundle features a custom handcrafted ceramic tea set and loose-leaf hojicha tea leaves, both sourced directly from revered multi-generational artisans in Kyoto, Japan. Completing the experience is a Deux Cranes Hojicha Karintō Dark Milk Chocolate Bar that reimagines karintō — a crisp brown sugar snack — in layers of caramelized milk and dark chocolate, with toasty notes from the infusion of roasted green tea.

Available for nationwide shipping on November 1st, Tea Time with Obāchan includes:

Hojicha Karintō Dark Milk Chocolate Bar, inspired by the nostalgic flavors of hojicha tea and Karinto, handcrafted by Deux Cranes chocolate maker Michiko Marron-Kibbey, celebrated for her creative blend of French techniques with Japanese flavors.
Loose-leaf Hojicha Tea from Morihan, Uji, Kyoto; the nearly two-century-old, family-owned tea house in Uji is revered for its award-winning ceremonial teas and a trusted name is Kyoto tea culture.
Handcrafted Ceramic Tea Strainer & Matching Cup Set by Koshun Kiln, led by third-generation potter Shinichi Takashima. The studio is known for its colorful, hand-decorated tableware made using the icchin technique—where fine lines of clay are piped onto the surface to create textured patterns.
Furoshiki by MUSUBI ($18.00), a third-generation Kyoto-based textile company founded in 1937 and committed to modernizing the use of these versatile cloths for everyday use (optional add-on).
