About This Tea
What does Tenkuu Matcha taste like?
This matcha presents a deep, vibrant vegetal character, opening with a toasted, pastry-like aroma. It transitions into a rich, buttery texture on the palate, culminating in a delightfully sweet finish. It leans vegetal, buttery and sweet.
How should I brew Tenkuu 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.
Where does Tenkuu Matcha come from?
Grown in Kyoto, Japan from the Blend cultivar. This batch is from the 2025 harvest.
How much does Tenkuu Matcha cost?
Starts at $60.00 from Kettl, or about $3.00/g. A 20g package gets you around 3 gongfu sessions at ~6 g each, which works out to about $18.00 per session. Explore more green teas on Teadar.
