About This Tea
What does Isuzu taste like?
This ceremonial grade matcha from Uji presents a vibrant, well-balanced profile. Initial sips reveal a pronounced umami depth, intertwined with a bright, nutty character. The finish carries a bold yet. It leans umami, nutty and bitter.
How should I brew Isuzu?
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 Isuzu come from?
Grown in Kyoto, Japan.
How much does Isuzu cost?
Starts at $47.43 from Teemaa, or about $0.75/g. A 40g package gets you around 7 gongfu sessions at ~6 g each, which works out to about $4.50 per session. Explore more green teas on Teadar.
