Ummon no Mukashi

The highest grade of matcha produced by Ippodo, Ummon no Mukashi is a real treat for matcha connoisseurs, and those with the most discerning palates. Full-bodied yet mellow, this tea has a rich umami flavour. We recommend that you don't use milk with this matcha, so you can fully enjoy its excellent flavour.

Find your perfect matcha with our matcha matrix. All the matcha we sell on NishuraEast has been tasted by Keiko Uchida, a Japanese Tea Master, and arranged from bitter to sweet, and full bodied to light.

How to Make Perfect Matcha:

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 2 scoops, or 1 scoop from an ordinary teaspoon (approx. 1.5g)

1. Add 2 scoops of matcha powder to your tea bowl or cup.
2. Pour around 70ml of not quite boiling water into the tea bowl.
3. Whisk the matcha with a chasen (Japanese bamboo whisk) or a small whisk, for about 15 seconds until smooth.
4. Relax and enjoy!
