Ueno-yaki Pottery and Local Ingredients in Fukuchi Town

Fukuchi Town is the home of Ueno-yaki pottery, which boasts a history of over 400 years. Kilns are scattered throughout the mountains at the foot of Mount Fukuchi, and the culture of ceramics is deeply rooted here. Ueno-yaki began in 1602 when the lord of the Buzen Domain, Hosokawa Tadaoki, invited Korean potters to establish kilns. It is counted as one of the 'Enshu Seven Kilns' associated with the tea master Kobori Enshu, and its thin-walled, elegant tea ceramics were loved by feudal lords. Even today, it is designated as a national traditional craft, with many kilns inheriting these techniques. By serving local ingredients grown with the pure water of Mount Fukuly in these beautiful and atmospheric vessels, you can enjoy a luxurious moment where both the pottery and the taste are fully appreciated. Fresh agricultural products can also be found at the direct sales office.
