Baisao: Tea, Early life & Influence
Baisao (Japanese: 売茶翁, Hepburn: Baisaō) (1675–1763) was a Japanese Buddhist monk of the Ōbaku school of Zen Buddhism, who became famous for traveling around Kyoto selling tea. The veneration of Baisao during and after his lifetime helped to popularize sencha tea and led to the creation of Senchadō.
