About This Tea
What does Japanese Matcha, Hoshinotsuyu (Ceremonial) taste like?
This ceremonial grade matcha delivers a mild, creamy texture with prominent notes of spinach, fresh grass, and a hint of oceanic seaweed. A subtle minerality complements a finely tuned, pleasant bitte. It leans umami, grassy and creamy.
How should I brew Japanese Matcha, Hoshinotsuyu (Ceremonial)?
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.
