Upon opening the tin, I am greeted by a deep aroma that evokes a decadent milk custard. The color is a vibrant green that reminds me of the first young leaves of Spring. The umami is full of depth and is reminiscent of a savory miso. The sweetness is one that my tongue reads as sweet dark chocolate. Another amazing matcha from Kanbayashi Shunsho.
