The meaning of Ogurayama "小倉山" :
"Mount Ogura" is a mountain in Saga, Kyoto, that faces Arashiyama from across the Hozu river. It is said that Fujiwara no Sadaie (also known as Fujiwara no Teika) compiled the "Hyakunin Isshu" ("One Hundred Poets, One Poem Each") at his lodge there. For this reason, the seminal waka anthology is also sometimes called the "Ogura Hyakunin Isshu".

As Usucha:
STEP 1) Put 1.5‒2 g (0.4 US tsp, 1 teaspoon or 2 chashaku (tea scoops)) matcha powder into a suitable tea bowl.
STEP 2) Pour 80 ml (2.7 fl oz) 80ºC (176ºF) 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)

great beginner matcha! its quite mild, creamy and slightly sweet, has a little bit of a nutty/toasted note as well. does not have any bitterness nor astringency, hence it may be good for those new to matcha! but personally i prefer something that has a bit more of an umami punch. still, this matcha is good and i will repurchase it again!

Mild, Earthy, Umami. It’s pleasant to drink and not extreme in any direction. Would recommend for those new to matcha and seasoned drinkers.

Tastes great and mimics isuzu from marukyu koyamaen. Has a bit of an aftertaste which I don’t mind and it does smell a bit more seaweed-y than isuzu but it’s a great matcha especially when made hot!

I can see why this matcha is popular. Is is great as a latte, has a balanced sweetness with some punch/umami. I can see beginners and more experienced matcha drinkers enjoy this.

This is a very strong flavoured matcha. Super delicious but a little more bitter than I like for a morning matcha. Definitely more of an afternoon matcha for me.

I am very positively surprised by how tasty this matcha is as usucha. A sweet aftertaste, a slight grassy note and a very light matcha in general. Very good value for money and I will definitely buy it again, 5/5. Seems like a perfect choice for daily matcha

It's a very good smooth tea. The finish seems a bit sweet. I couldn't find any bitter notes or anything pleasant in this tea. A million times better than the garbage sold on amazon in America. The price for this tea is amazing. Don't hesitate to try. 5 stars for price to taste ratio

I agree, I got this as a free sample, and nice toasted notes.

Superrr yummy. I enjoyed this matcha in lattes and loved the nuttiness and overall flavor. Best with 2% milk in my opinion and not overpowered by the milk. Great with maple syrup
