Sugimoto Reserve Mizuki Matcha 3.5 oz (100g)
Due to the popularity of the 1 oz tin format, we have made Mizuki Matcha available in 100g bags for its biggest fans. Matcha is powdered tencha* historically used in the Japanese tea ceremony. "Mizuki" means celebration, happiness, freshness, and beauty. The name was chosen to represent a beautiful green tea field, which is fitting for this ceremonial grade matcha from Yame, Fukuoka. Thick and creamy on the palate, this matcha is intensely nutty in aroma and flavor, similar to fresh pine nuts. It's rich in umami and has no astringency but leaves a lingering weight on the palate. Enjoy the extra-long finish with each slow sip.
*Tencha is a minimally-processed, fluffy leaf tea produced specifically to make fresh matcha.
