About This Tea
What does Hakusan Matcha taste like?
This exquisite Matcha offers a rich, umami-driven experience with prominent notes of toasted sesame. Hints of fresh spring herbs and oceanic nori emerge, culminating in a deeply satisfying, velvety fi. It leans umami, nutty and herbaceous.
How should I brew Hakusan 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 Hakusan Matcha come from?
Grown in Uji, Kyoto, Japan from the Blend cultivar. This batch is from the 2025 harvest.
How much does Hakusan Matcha cost?
Starts at $45.00 from Kettl, or about $0.47/g. A 40g package gets you around 7 gongfu sessions at ~6 g each, which works out to about $2.82 per session. Explore more green teas on Teadar.
