Powdery green tea is processed into powder which has been extracted from green tea extracts. Matcha is made from tea leaves which have been ground to pieces by millstone. Therefore, you get all the nutrition of the tea leaves.
As flavor components and sweetness are better, the price of the tea leaves will be higher. Since each green tea is an original, you can find your favorite.
In order to increase sweetness, our tea is grown in the shade.
We carefully harvest the tea leaves by hand.
In order to stop fermentation, the harvested tea leaves are steamed. They are then crumpled while drying to increase flavor.
The tea leaves are cut with only part of the mesophyll taken out.
The tea leaves are finely ground by millstone. The process is complete!
Tea utensils: Tea bowl, bamboo whisk, bamboo tea scoop.
|
Pour hot water into the tea bowl, hand it with both hands and warm it up. After it has warmed up, discard the water and wipe out. |
|---|---|
|
Place 2 tea scoops of Matcha into the tea bowl. |
|
Add 100~130cc hot water. |
|
Dissolve Matcha in hot water. Whisk the Matcha and hot water slowly using the bamboo whisk, then whisk very briskly back and forth. |

When a fine textured foam has developed, slowly and carefully lift the bamboo whisk from the bowl. |
Introducing the manner for drinking the Matcha.
|
Hold the tea bowl up by placing your right hand on the rim of the tea bowl and your left hand under the tea bowl. To show appreciation to the person who served you the Matcha, raise your tea bowl up a little and make a slight bow. |
|---|---|
|
In order to avoid drinking from the front of the tea bowl, turn the tea bowl 2 times clockwise using your right hand. |
|
Drink slowly, little by little. |
|
After drinking, wipe the rim of the tea bowl. In order to appreciate the design of the tea bowl, turn the tea bowl 2 times counter-clockwise. |
When the sweets and tea are served together, you should eat the sweets first. It's impolite manners to eat and drink at the same time.
The front of the tea bowl is set down at your side. You need to avoid drinking from the front to show modesty. In order to do so, turn the tea bowl 2 times clockwise.
The tea bowl served to you is selected to welcome you. To appreciate the design of it please ask, "Where does this pottery come from?" It will make your host happy.
Matcha spoils easily.
Matcha is sensitive to humidity and tends to absorb odors.
Therefore, store it in a closed container and keep it in a refrigerator.
Drink within 10days.
