The meaning of Miyako no Fuji "都の富士" :
"Miyako no Fuji" refers to Mount Hiei, a magestic and revered mountain located between the prefectures of Shiga and Kyoto in Western Japan. As a result of its undeniable beauty, Mt. Hiei was read as "Miyako no fuji" ("Miyako's Fuji") in historical poetry and other documents. Mt. Hiei in particular is a special holy place for Japanese buddhism.
("Miyako" was a name for the capital city, the place of the imperial palace, and the seat of the government)

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.
