Matcha Yuuwa
Spring 2024
Translated as “A Pale Quiet Harmony” (Yuuwa no Shiro), this matcha is incredibly smooth and vibrant. A nicely balance matcha on the more dry side. Ideal for a special bowl of matcha, especially when whisked with an artisan chasen.
Sold in a 30g tin.
Some Notes for making Matcha:
It the full leaf of the plant, made into green tea, and stone-ground into a fine powder. Unlike all our other teas, you drink/eat the leaf! This makes it that much more important to know where your matcha comes from. All our lower priced Matcha teas are certified Organic to give added assurance of quality. Higher grade matcha may not be certified organic, but has been grown and processed with the strictest standards.
Grading:
We offer various price-points depending on your matcha needs. In general, the higher the price, the smoother, less bitter, and brighter green the matcha is.
If you’re looking to make it hot, we recommend sticking with: Matcha Standard, Matcha Izumi, or Matcha Yuuwa
For Cooking, Iced, or Smoothies, we recommend: Matcha Standard, Organic Grade 2, or Organic Grade 3
Making Matcha:
In general, a little goes a long way. No matter how your making it, the following is a rough guide:
For making it Hot, 1 tsp per 2-3oz hot water. There’s no better way than using a chasen, or bamboo whisk. Choose from our Master Crafted Japanese Chasen, or value (and works great) bamboo whisk.
