Overview
Best pick • solid matcha choice from Nishio, Nishio
Pairing: sushi, steamed vegetables, or citrusy salads
A best-in-class Matcha from Nishio in Aichi prefecture, Suiteki is a 100% hand-harvested matcha with a soft sweetness and super-silky texture. The flavor profile we would use is "ultra classic"—a sweet baked grassiness with a tempered umami. The slightly longer shading process results in a deep, jade hue that contrasts beautifully with milk.
