This exquisite matcha offers a delightful complexity, beginning with rich notes of nut butter that lead into fresh, vegetal hints of mizuna. An elegant astringency perfectly balances the deep flavors,. It leans nutty, vegetal and astringent.
How should I brew Tsurukage 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.
