What's "Omotesenke"?
In Japan, there are three major schools of Tea Ceremony or Chanoyu.
The Omote-Senke, tea ceremony of "Fushin-an" is one of them.
The Omotesenke was derived from "Wabi-Cha" formed by Mr. Sen Rikyu (1522-91).He established the Wabi-Cha as a more practical tea ceremony with a more modern style than one in the medieval era.
Rikyu's second son, Mr. Shouan(1564-1614) succeeded his father in Fushinan, the tearoom of Senke. For over 400 years, the Omotesenke of Tea ceremony has been inherited from one generation to another.
