About This Tea
What does Hukuju Matcha taste like?
This premium, first-flush stone-milled matcha offers a luxurious everyday experience. It unfolds with a distinct nutty aroma, leading into a velvety texture on the palate. Expect delightful notes of r. It leans nutty, velvety and sweet.
How should I brew Hukuju Matcha?
Water around 70–80 °C (158–176 °F). In a mug, steep 2–3 min. For gongfu, use 3–5 g per 100 ml, 15–30 s steeps. You'll get to see how the flavor changes across multiple rounds. The biggest mistake with green tea is using boiling water. Keep it well below that and you won't get bitterness.
