This is the classic version of the cherry bark tea container typical for Akita prefecture in Northern Japan. A wooden core is being covered with cherry bark. The cherry bark is impermeable and protects the tea inside the box from air and humidity. These kind of tea boxes have been used in Japan since many centuries.
