Japanese tea began at Nara age. In peace period, because of the insufficient product quantity,
drinking tea was performed just in the form of the courtesy. Here, ceremonial function and
medicinal use were also included.

which lays stress on warrior. Founding Zen temple as its center, leading culture - training and
relief of the needy - was made. On the other hand, Tucha was being prevailed as the way of
tasting an elegant.
Cheonjungdatang(Seowoncha) was formed through compounding warrior's Tucha and priest's memorial rites organically. A result of assimilation of people's tea and Seowoncha was Jukwang's tea, and fomentation of Choamcha, which enjoyed in nature, began at Jukwang.
Choamcha established its principle at salvation and enlightenment brings with a Buddhist
canon. A state of awakening through Zen and the final stage which Wabichoamcha pursues

figure which became independent from Buddhism. Its execution was the figure of Zen priest's
daily life. Zen formality which was given secularism borrowed the form of Chanoyu and
