Good quality matcha powder for making usucha (thin tea). The powder is made of first harvest tea and is rich of umami. There is a little bitterness and astringency in the drink. The powder has a fine texture and foams easily into smooth and creamy tea.
Matcha powder is made by Shogyokuen operating since 1827 in Kyoto Prefecture, Japan. The blend of tea leaves has been selected by Hiroshi Kobayashi, a highly regarded tea master in Japan.
