Entry grade matcha for making usucha (thin tea)
Hatsumukashi is a refreshingly bright usucha tea with a pleasant tart flavor. It represents the entry level of quality matcha teas, purposefully lower in terms of full-bodied, characteristic sweet flavors. This makes a great milder tea benefitting from lower temperature water, yet take care not to go below 75 degrees Celsius, as there this tea can tend towards bitterness. Step inside the world of powdered green tea – it will be a great beginning.
The meaning of Hatsumukashi "初昔" :
"Hatsu" means "new" or "first" "Hatsu no mukashi" is tea made from the leaves of the first harvest of the season.
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!

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.
❖ 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)
EXTRA TIP
❖ Try iced matcha: pour the finished matcha over ice.

Well, for this price you can't expect too much complexity. You can drink at as usucha but I would recommend 85°C instead of 80°C. Also, eat something sweet or bitter before drinking this matcha to tame the bitterness. If you follow these recommendations, this matcha tastes actually pretty decent for this price point.
