Overview
Best pick • solid matcha choice from Unknown origin
Pairing: shortbread, fresh fruit, or mild cheeses
Silky, creamy, and effortlessly smooth — from the deep-steamed tea capital of Kakegawa. This matcha comes from a long-established tea house in Kakegawa, Shizuoka — a region renowned as the heartland of deep-steamed tea in Japan. Their expertise in crafting smooth, well-rounded teas is clearly reflected in the cup. Gentle sweetness with a subtle, sweet roastiness. Low bitterness, silky mouthfeel, and excellent foam. Equally at home in a bowl of usucha or a latte — but the latte is where it truly shines. With 100g to work with, we recommend being generous with the powder: a slightly heavier pour makes for a richer, more indulgent matcha latte. Latte: ★★★★★ Excellent Usucha (straight): ★★★★☆ Very Good
