Matcha Ryokuhou

One of the highest rank teas for making koicha (thick tea)

Ryokuhou is an extra premium, mild and rather light koicha tea. It offers a gently pampering, light, sweet sensation as an usucha. It is a far lighter and sweeter tea compared to the Senju, which is next on our list, with discreet body and sweetness compared to the extra special Shoukaku matcha immediately above it. It is an elegant, unique tea. Once drunk, never forgotten.

The meaning of Ryokuhou "緑芳" :
「緑」(“Green”, read as “ryoku”) is associated with the budding of fresh green trees & shrubs, while the character 「芳」(read as “hou”) represents admirability and splendour. By joining these two images in tandem, the tea maker makes a wish for the prosperity and fortune of all those who drink it.

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

HOW TO PREPARE

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 mix with a chasen (tea whisk) until creamy.

❖ 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)
