This Matcha is not bitter, but smooth and soft. The better the quality of the matcha, the more vibrant the green becomes; the taste becomes nobler, smoother and softer.
Our Matcha Premium is shaded 20 to 30 days before harvest in the "Tana" way. The distinguished aroma is caused by keeping the tea trees with reed mats out of the sunlight; the "Tana" technique. The dried, destemmed and de-veined Tencha leaves are then very finely ground/crushed with a traditional stone mortar and pestle, a so-called Hikiusu. With the deep flavor and distinguished aroma, this Matcha Ceremonial Grade is perfect for Koicha (thick and strong tea style) and Usucha (thin and mild tea style).
