Welcoming the New Year with Gratitude and a Cup of Ōbukucha 🍵

Hello everyone, I'm Keko, one of the online staff members.

As the year comes to a close, there’s something deeply satisfying about cleaning up and preparing a fresh, new calendar.✨ It feels like we’re wiping the slate clean, making space for new beginnings and opportunities.

Are you all ready to welcome the New Year? It’s a perfect time to pause, take a well-deserved rest, and savor a soothing cup of tea. 🍵 Let’s not let the fatigue of the year linger—tea has this magical way of refreshing both the body and spirit.


This season, have you heard of Ōbukucha (大福茶)?
It’s a traditional tea enjoyed during the New Year, symbolizing good fortune, health, and happiness for the year ahead. At Nakamura Tokichi, we offer a selection of Ōbukucha that carries this heartfelt tradition in every sip. It’s a thoughtful way to welcome the New Year with warmth and gratitude.

As we reflect on the memories of this year, let’s cherish the days we’ve spent, big and small, with a sense of gratitude. Every moment becomes part of the tapestry of our lives, reminding us how precious time truly is.

Here’s to a peaceful close to this year and a warm, hopeful welcome to the next. What tea will you be sipping as you greet 2024?
