Kiwami Matcha | きわみ

Traditional Matcha
Usucha: In a tea bowl, whisk 2g of sifted Matcha powder with 65g of water (180°F) with a bamboo whisk until a fine foam is achieved.

Koicha: In a tea bowl, add 4g of sifted Matcha powder and 30-35g of water (180°F) and knead gently with a whisk until the matcha is completely mixed and is the texture of paint.

Iced Matcha: Add 2g of sifted Matcha to a tumbler or thermos, add 200g of cold filtered water and shake vigorously for 30 seconds. Pour over ice.

Storage: Keep the tin in the refrigerator. After opening, place the tin in a ziploc bag before returning to the fridge - this will protect the tea from absorbing any aromas from your refrigerator.

What is so special about this tea? This creamy matcha green tea is expertly crafted using primarily the Saemidori cultivar. A gently drying process coaxes out its inherent sweetness and umami and also supplies it with its gently nuttiness. Deep notes of Cacao and cream make this one of the easiest matcha tea to make and enjoy. We receive a very limited monthly allotment of this tea so it is often not in stock. We restock the first week of each month.
