About This Tea
What does Shirakawa Midori Matcha taste like?
This Shirakawa Midori Matcha presents a balanced profile, crafted to stand out in milk-based drinks. It offers distinct notes of marcona almond and fresh spring pea, balanced by a subtle sourdough tan. It leans umami, nutty and vegetal.
How should I brew Shirakawa Midori 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 Shirakawa Midori Matcha come from?
Grown in Uji, Kyoto, Japan from the Blend cultivar. This batch is from the 2025 harvest.
How much does Shirakawa Midori Matcha cost?
Starts at $40.00 from Kettl, or about $1.00/g. A 40g package gets you around 7 gongfu sessions at ~6 g each, which works out to about $6.00 per session. Explore more green teas on Teadar.
