Premium Ceremonial Matcha (Imperial Grade)

Beautiful Matcha

This is an excellent and beautiful matcha. It has a slightly 'sweet', nutty flavour and a beautiful green colour. It pairs well with anything (I particularly like it with homemade earl grey syrup). It's quite expensive so not a daily matcha for me but I really enjoy it whenever I have it.

Not as umami as i expected

This matcha was lacking the umami note i expected but as usucha and koicha it’s still very delicious, really vegetal and bright with natural sweetness and just a touch of umami and gentle bitterness and astringency. Also it’s insanely bright green and smells super grassy! It doesn’t really stand up as a latte as the flavours are too subtle so any milk dilutes the flavour notes quite a bit.
