Spring Matcha

This organic Matcha Wakana presents a remarkably velvety texture with a pronounced umami depth, beautifully complemented by a nuanced, lingering sweetness. Subtle grassy notes emerge on the palate, co. It leans umami, sweet and grassy.

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.

Grown in Kyoto, Japan from the Okumidori cultivar. This batch is from the Spring harvest.

Starts at $14.29 from Yuko Ono, or about $0.06/g. A 6g package gets you around 1 gongfu sessions at ~6 g each, which works out to about $0.36 per session. Explore more green teas on Teadar.
