What You'll Learn
Complete the 'A Letter to Koyin' side quest
To complete the "A Letter to Koyin" side quest in The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, you must first find Koyin, who can be found standing at the edge of a pond in Hateno Pasture, near the Hateno Village Research Lab.
Speak to Koyin to initiate the quest. She will tell you about a message bottle containing a letter from her great-grandfather that she dropped into the pond. She will ask you to retrieve the bottle for her, as she cannot swim.
There are multiple ways to retrieve the bottle. One method is to cut down nearby trees and attach the logs together to form a makeshift pole. Use the Ultrahand ability to grab the bottle with the pole and pull it back to shore. Alternatively, you can use Zonai materials or ice arrows to create a bridge to the bottle and walk across to retrieve it.
Once you have the bottle, bring it back to Koyin and place it in front of her. A cutscene will play, and she will read the message, which turns out to be a recipe for Hateno Cheese. Koyin will then invite you to her house to watch her make the cheese. Follow her back to her home, and she will reward you with a single piece of Hateno Cheese.
Completing this quest will also result in Koyin starting to stock her shop with Hateno Cheese, allowing you to purchase it for 20 Rupees or trade a bottle of Fresh Milk for a piece of cheese. Additionally, you can now buy Hateno Cheese at the Hateno General Store and the Lookout Landing General Shop.
