  From its origins as a distinct set of ritualised practices in the sixteenth century to its international expansion in the twentieth, tea culture has had a major impact on artistic production, connoisseurship, etiquette, food, design and on notions of Japaneseness. The authors dispel the myths around the development of tea practice.
