Yanada Masatsuna and Chado


 

It was wellknown that Yanada Masatsuna provided key intelligence to Nobunaga on the whereabouts of Imagawa Yoshimoto during the Battle of Okehazama. Nobunaga rewarded him with Kutsukake Castle and cash. That being said, there is little known about him after the battle. Here is some interesting information regarding Yanada Masatsuna. In 1573, he participated in a tea ceremony with Kawajiri Hidetaka, Ban Naomasa, with tea master Tsuda Sogyu.
