It is pretty bad as Usucha, and disappointingly unfulfilling as Koicha. There's no complexity of flavor. The taste reminded me of soy milk, whereas my husband thought the palate overpowered by bitterness.

Now that I've tried all the Hokoen matchas, the main discerning note is their lack of sweetness. Horii Shichimeien and Marukyu-Koyamaen have very recognizable sweetness after a certain price point - particularly once you approach this level. This matcha had notes of toasted rice and barley. I found it much more enjoyable than the Shoukaku, but it's not worth the price per gram in my opinion. Overall, like all Hokoen matchas, this is more of a savory matcha just, which just isn't my thing.

Excellent balance of flavors! It is smooth, creamy, and has zero astringency. I just wish it had better packaging.

I've been advised to start drinking matcha with Senju. Nice decision, very full but subtle taste, no bitterness at all. I think I'll order another one before I move to a higher grade, I am afraid even a higher grade koicha wouldn't give me the same experience.

Definitely worth a generous helping in your cup. Rich mouthfeel with 4 g per 100g water, minimal agitation. Not bitter at all. I found it a better koicha than Kinrin (which is a phenomenal usucha).
