First and foremost, it is an addiction to the insanely delicious taste and aroma. It&#8217;s a moment when you can stop and savour the flavours, notice and discover the beautiful everyday details. Tea is the subject of my work. After all, it&#8217;s so exciting to discover new flavours, to experiment and combine them!    <\/p><p>My friendship with tea started more than 10 years ago. My interest in tea and Asia led me to the studies of East Asian cultures and languages, thanks to which I spent a year in Japan, learning about the country&#8217;s culture, the tea ceremony and the subtleties of pottery. Returning from the Land of the Rising Sun, I wrote my final thesis titled &#8220;The Tea Ceremony as Part of Japanese Identity&#8221;.  <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-3039a8f\" data-id=\"3039a8f\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-6fa35cc elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"6fa35cc\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"640\" src=\"https:\/\/www.yugentea.lt\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Yugen-Tea-Giedre.png\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-17049\" alt=\"Giedre.

While living there, I lovingly brewed tea for the locals, completed Certified Tea Master Courses by Australian Tea Masters and Tea Blending Courses by Australian Tea Masters. I then had the opportunity to spend three remarkable spring months at the tea farm in Uji region in Japan where I had hands-on experience on the process of growing and making tea.<\/p><p>During my stay in Uji I realized that some of the sweetest moments of my life came with a cup of tea in my hands. Therefore, coming back to my homeland Lithuania, I am eager to share the tea stories and the most delicious cups of tea with you. Having discovered many extraordinary teas, I think it is unfair to keep all of it to myself.<\/p><p>Yugen Tea is a project that has been a long time in the making. After knowing and discovering so many wonderful teas, I decided it was unfair to keep it all to myself. The idea of opening a tea bar-studio in Lithuania, where I could make and tell you about tea for hours, was born. \u00a0<\/p><p>While staying in Japan, I met Japanese farmers who love tea to the depths of their hearts. So among the tea fields, the idea was born to open this online shop, which would be like a bridge between You and the small farms of Japan. I believe that the tea of every farmer I have met is like a work of art that reflects his worldview and passion. From the many extraordinarily delicious teas, I have selected those that, in my opinion, best reflect the character and spirit of that farmer. I wish you to seek and discover your favourite flavours and moments.<\/p><p>Giedr\u0117<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-659a9f9 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"659a9f9\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-0e9d4aa\" data-id=\"0e9d4aa\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-1079f62 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"1079f62\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h4 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">What is Yugen?<\/h4>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-a84aa7e elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"a84aa7e\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-191ffb0\" data-id=\"191ffb0\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-ac8237e elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"ac8237e\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Yugen is a Japanese aesthetic term for the subtle beauty of this world, experienced by observing the small details of our daily lives.
