Ikuyo no Mukashi

 

A well-balanced matcha with a mild and refreshing taste. This tea is perfect for usucha or matcha lattes.

 

How to Make Perfect Matcha Latte:

 

We recommend you use not quite boiling water, around 80¡C works well.

 

If you are using a chashaku (a Japanese bamboo teaspoon) we recommend 4 scoops, or 2 scoops from an ordinary teaspoon (approx. 3g)

 

 

  1. Pass your matcha powder through a tea strainer into your tea bowl or cup.

 

  1. Pour around 60ml of not quite boiling water into the tea bowl.

 

  1. Whisk this for around 15 seconds with a chasen (Japanese bamboo whisk) or a small whisk. It should be smooth and slightly foamy.

 

  1. Pour in the warm milk of your choice (we recommend soy milk) and enjoy!
