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)

A matcha with great personality that preserves the harmony of origin. Among the selection of matchas I buy at Sazen Tea, I choose this when I need a strong and powerful "push" to start the day.

Another lovely Matcha tea which I have had the pleasure of purchasing. Lovely bright vibrant tea with a delicious smooth taste. This is my daily Matcha and up there in quality with the Tenju that Sazen Tea sell. Wonderfully energising, clarity of mind is strong with this Matcha. The aroma in the cup takes you to green fields with vision of early morning mist. A very expensive Tea, but if you appreciate your Matcha then you will know that paying that extra will make the experience that much more special for you. I prefer this one with 2.5g and approx 70ml water - sublime.
