Our blending and tasting team members have shared their personal tasting comments on this tea below. “In Kanza you can enjoy a strong and rich umami, with an aftertaste that has remarkable depth. It reminds me of an excellent full-bodied red wine. I will reach for Kanza when I want to have a silent moment alone with my thoughts. Its lush character deserves quiet attention and focus.”PRESIDENT WATANABE, 7th generation “Both Kanza’s fragrance and flavor are unequivocally powerful. From the first moment you take a sip to the end of the finish, it has a strong, unwavering umami, and no astringency. But make no mistake; it is not at all light-bodied.”CHAIRMAN WATANABE, 6th generation The best way is to focus your entire attention on listening to the sound of water boiling and matcha being prepared with a whisk in a quiet space, and the fragrance of matcha wafting into the air, and the flavour and fragrance experienced when drinking the matcha. It’s great for when you want to concentrate. Kanza is a matcha that should be savoured straight—as nothing but pure matcha. Relish its deep, bold umami flavour that lasts from the first sip to the last, as well as its rich fragrance. Kanza has a smooth mouth feel and a refined, elegant flavour. Another distinctive feature is its magnificent, bright green colour. The best way to savour this matcha to the full is as koicha (thick matcha), adding only enough water to blend the powder into a smooth paste. Savour the luxurious flavour and fragrance produced thanks to the tea leaves having absorbed an abundance of rich nutrients.
