Uji matcha for making usucha from Kanbayashi Shunsho
Perfect matcha for everydays.
A soft, light, refreshing, creamy, frothy matcha, which when swallowed, is first imbued with a sweet, milky softness and tenderness. The aftertaste has a hint of tartness and bitterness mixed with slight nuttiness. At lower temperatures, the tea tends to be bitter, so it is best to use water at 85 degrees. The effect is refreshing and invigorating.
This surprisingly sweet and creamy matcha is perfect for those new to usucha. Although it is an entry-level option, it performs impressively well. It features a light body and a mellow taste with well-balanced flavor notes. Silky, fresh, and leaves a slightly nutty aftertaste.

HOW TO PREPARE
STEP 1) Put 2g (0.4 US tsp, 1 teaspoon or 2 chashaku scoop) matcha powder into a suitable tea bowl.
STEP 2) Pour 75 ml (2.4 fl oz) 85℃ (185°F) water over the matcha powder.
STEP 3) Whisk with a chasen (tea whisk) until foamy.
❖ Before Step 1, warm up the tea bowl with hot water, then dry it with a cloth to create the perfect temperature so make the most delicious matcha with a fresh scent while preparing. (Optional)
❖ To prevent clotting of the matcha powder, sift it through a fine strainer before use. (Strongly recommended)
❖ After the matcha is done, drink it immediately, because as it cools down it gets more and more bitter. (Recommended)
❖ Freshness is the most important thing for the enjoyment of Matcha. It is best to use up the tea within one month of opening. (Strongly recommended)

Very astringent but it gets quite mild if done as latte

First thing: I'm very much a matcha beginner. I drink it mostly for the effects, not the taste; but I'm exploring to figure out if there's a matcha I also *enjoy* drinking. This is... okay. It has a strong earthy note which, in my opinion, tends toward bitterness. Used in a latte (don't judge me :P), the earthiness stands out, when I would expect it to be muted by the milk. It's certainly still better than cheap supermarket matcha, and I'll finish the small tin I bought; but I won't buy this again.

This matcha would probably be a good, affordable entry-level option for matcha beginners, but it doesn't fit my preferences. It definitely has that silky and fresh taste that was promised in the description. However, it has a very strong bitterness and astringency that reminds me of sucking almond nuts (which is probably the "nutty aftertaste"). No matter what temperature I make it with, it still turns out very bitter. It also doesn't froth like the other matcha products I've tried. Lastly, the colour is not as vibrant as other matches (MK, Ippodo, even Biwa no Shiro from the same brand).
