Confronta i tè

An affordable luxury, the Shunkou no Mukashi is a Ceremonial Grade matcha made for koicha (thick matcha). Please enjoy the magnificent umami and aroma that is particular to koicha which will spread softly and gradually when you put it in your mouth. You can also use this matcha to make usucha (thin matcha) by utilizing a smaller amount. The matcha sommeliers at AOI rate this matcha 4/5 in terms of umami flavor, aroma, and 3/5 for richness (please see graph for visual presentation).
