Kabusecha Akamine

A balanced and umami-rich green tea from Kyoto

$5.83 / unit

Da******, 2026-10-09 08:13 JST, UNITED STATES OF AMERICA

I’ve tried dozens of Japanese greens, including about 15 (non-matcha) teas on Sazen on my journey to find the best everyday Japanese green. While Tongu Asatsuyu was a pleasant surprise - the first sencha I ever had with a *truly unique* profile (sweet potato) - this is *the* Japanese green I’ve been looking for. I haven’t been able to find the words for the tea’s notes because the balance is so perfect and everything I want from a Japanese green is there. Luminous green, full of chlorophyll, with a sake-like aftertaste. The recommended temperature works best for the first 3 cups (but I would do 80 seconds for the first cup and 10 for the next 3), then raise the temperature by 10 degrees Fahrenheit from the 4th cup onwards and brew 20 seconds for the 5th, 30 seconds for the 6th, and a minute for the 7th if the 6th was flavorful.

Usucha Matsu no Shiro

Uji matcha from Kanbayashi Shunsho for making usucha or matcha drinks

$11.34 / unit

Ol******, 2026-10-07 03:46 JST, UKRAINE

The lowest grade in the usucha lineup. Rating it as 2 as it's marketed as "usucha"-grade. The price is unbeatable, but the color is quite dull and honestly looks more like a culinary-grade matcha. I personally can’t enjoy it as usucha. It works fine in a latte if you don’t mind the muted green color, but my favorite use for this matcha is definitely baking. It’s great in cakes and other desserts.
