STEP 1: Place 1.5–2 g (approx. ½ tsp or 2 chashaku (traditional tea scoop)) of matcha powder into a suitable tea bowl.
STEP 2: Pour 70 ml (2.4 fl oz) of 80°C (176°F) water over the powder.
STEP 3: Whisk (vigorously) with a chasen (tea whisk) until frothy.
❖ Warm the tea bowl with hot water first, then dry it thoroughly with a cloth. This helps maintain the ideal temperature and brings out the fresh aroma of the matcha.
❖ Sift the matcha powder through a fine strainer before use to prevent clumping (strongly recommended).
❖ Drink the matcha immediately after preparing it, as it may become more bitter as it cools.
❖ After opening the matcha packaging, consume all the tea within one month for the best experience.

Incredible flavour profile, for people who like rich and umami taste

I was really excited to try it and i think it’s extremely overhyped some of the matcha from kanbayashi shunsho is cheaper and tastes a lot better than this one. I would recommend sazummikashi and yazuriha and im not sure of the spelling you can try those before purchasing this one. This matcha doesnt have a lot of complexity. I think Its good for beginners however not for experienced matcha drinkers.

This was surprisingly really good out of the batch of "affordable" matcha I got this time around. It had a distinct "nori" smell that is very different from the usual seaweed notes of some matcha. (Think Japanese rice balls/onigiri) This results in a deep savory flavor that is surprisingly not bitter. It's not as bright as the more expensive ones, and the flavor isn't what I would call complex, but it works really well for what it is.

This is my second purchase. The first thing that struck me is its nose. Immediately I got a strong scent of roasted seaweed. Very delicious. On the palate, it is not as refined, smooth or complex if compared to others but note its price I think its excellent. It is a bit strong and rough but in a good way. It help awaken my senses and is my choice after a tired day. I dosed it slightly heavier than a thin tea but less than a thick tea as I like my liquor slightly stronger.

I am always consistently surprised by this Matcha Samidori from Yamamasa Koyamaen, especially for the price. When the water hits it, there's a nice fragrant aroma. As usucha, it's qualities are all soft. The good and bad are all soft... soft creaminess, slightly sweet, very muted bitter and muted umami. And all of that combined makes it a great staple to have around at all times. It's by no means top tier, but it's not offensive. It's great for those time when your friends want a matcha latte! I give it 5 stars because I think it's the best price you'll find for a reliable latte matcha.
