Matcha Nishiki no Mukashi

Autumn Matcha Tea Blend from Horii Shichimeien

Seasonal Matcha from Horii Shichimeien for both koicha and usucha.

TASTING NOTES
A mellow, velvety, uniquely sweet, and full-bodied tea with flavors that only start unraveling once you swallow. When prepared as a koicha, the tea’s explosive robustness and scintillatingly intense flavors as well as its long aftertaste on the palate are sure to charm and impress, providing those fortunate enough to experience it with extraordinarily intoxicating flavors. When drunk as a thin (“usucha”) tea, it is bound to win you over with its sweetness and body wrapped in a mellow, silky coating.

Available from early October until early December.

Please note, that Sazen Tea does not keep this product in stock. We get all matcha and tea powder fresh from the factories only after an order is placed for it on our website, and this process can take a few days. Thank you for your patience!

How to prepare

USUCHA:
STEP 1) Put 2g (0.4 US tsp, 1 teaspoon or 2 chashaku scoop) matcha powder into a suitable tea bowl.
STEP 2) Pour 70 ml (2.4 fl oz) 80℃ (176°F) water over the matcha powder.
STEP 3) Whisk with a chasen (tea whisk) until foamy.

KOICHA:
STEP 1) Put 4g (0.8 US tsp, 2 teaspoon or 4 chashaku scoop) matcha powder into a suitable tea bowl.
STEP 2) Pour 30 ml (1 fl oz) 80℃ (176°F) water over the matcha powder.
STEP 3) Gently knead with a chasen (tea whisk) until all lumps are gone.

❖ 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)

So delicious! It has a full, creamy, sweet taste with no astringency at all. Highly recommended! Can't wait to try the other tsubokiri matcha from this brand, too!
