This matcha is slightly sweet, wonderfully creamy and soft, with an aroma and taste reminiscent of cocoa notes. It has a fresh, sweet aroma and an intensely aromatic taste with strong umami. With its intense aroma and deep green color, this matcha is of the highest ceremonial (tea ceremony) quality. This is achieved not only by shading the tea plants for a long time before harvesting, but in particular by using only the youngest Shincha tea leaves.

The Matcha powder is very finely ground. This means that the powder dissolves easily in water - ideal for matcha beginners. It is therefore not necessary to sieve the matcha before preparation. It is also ideal for preparing your daily matcha latte. Be sure to give it a try!

This Shincha comes from Kyoto Prefecture in the heart of Japan. Mr. Nakai took over the family farm from his father in 2006. Although his father wanted to continue the operation conventionally, his son has advocated the cultivation without the use of pesticides, herbicides or chemical fertilizers & meanwhile converted the entire tea farm to organic cultivation.

The Matcha is naturally grown completely pesticide-free and without chemical fertilizers in Wazuka, Kyoto.

at least 1 teaspoon per 100ml / 70-80 degrees

Koicha
This Matcha is particularly suitable for preparation as Koicha ("thick Matcha"). If you dose the Matcha high, its chocolaty aroma & silky smooth taste comes out particularly well.

Usucha
Also the usual preparation as "thin matcha" works great. Simply use 1/4 - 1/2 teaspoon or 1-2 matcha spoons per 100ml of water.

Storage
The Matcha tea comes in a sealed and resealable flavor bag. The removal is super easy and the tea stays fresh for a long time.
