【Plum Pattern】
Plum of health and disaster prevention
A delicate flower that blooms bravely amidst the cold wind and snow. Along with its faint sweet fragrance, it heralds the early arrival of spring.
The deep red, pink, and white colors of the winter landscape evoke a breath of life.
Many songs remain in Japan’s oldest anthology "Manyoshu" that feature the plum blossom as a theme, and it has been loved by people since ancient times.
Speaking of plum, the origin is the plum tea "Daifukucha" made by steeping dried plums and kombu kelp. Its origin traces back to the mid-Heian period when Emperor Murakami drank it during illness and recovered.
