Matcha Seiun

High grade matcha tea from Yamamasa Koyamaen

Matcha Seiun Matcha Seiun Matcha Seiun

Koicha (thick tea) grade Uji matcha.

Origin: Kyoto Prefecture, Japan

An intense, velvety full-bodied, robust, creamy, sweet koicha tea. Its robust, characteristic and lingering aftertaste reveals toasted seed aromas. It is a lighter, sweeter tea compared to the Tennouzan, the next on our list. When prepared as a thin tea (usucha), it offers intensive, creamy flavours, whilst the fullness and characteristics of the tea remain concealed. Use 80-85°C water for usucha and 95°C water for koicha tea, as lower temperatures could result in bitter flavours.

The meaning of Seiun "星雲" :
The Japanese word for "nebula" (read as "seiun") is a compound that beautifully merges two different entities into one: "star cloud".

Please note, that Sazen Tea does not keep this product in stock. We get all matcha and tea powder fresh from the factories only after an order is placed for it on our website, and this process can take a few days. Thank you for your patience!

How to prepare

As Usucha:
STEP 1) Put 2g (0.4 US tsp, 1 teaspoon or 2 chashaku scoop) matcha powder into a suitable tea bowl.
STEP 2) Pour 70 ml (2.4 fl oz) 80℃ (176°F) water over the matcha powder.
STEP 3) Whisk with a chasen (tea whisk) until foamy.

As Koicha:
STEP 1) Put 4g (0.8 US tsp, 2 teaspoon or 4 chashaku scoop) matcha powder into a suitable tea bowl.
STEP 2) Pour 30 ml (1 fl oz) 80℃ (176°F) water over the matcha powder.
STEP 3) Gently knead with a chasen (tea whisk) until all lumps are gone.

❖ Before Step 1, warm up the tea bowl with hot water, then dry it with a cloth to create the perfect temperature so make the most delicious matcha with a fresh scent while preparing. (Optional)
❖ To prevent clotting of the matcha powder, sift it through a fine strainer before use. (Strongly recommended)
❖ After the matcha is done, drink it immediately, because as it cools down it gets more and more bitter. (Recommended)
❖ Freshness is the most important thing for the enjoyment of Matcha. It is best to use up the tea within one month of opening. (Strongly recommended)
