Matcha Okumidori | Green Tea
Matcha has become very popular in the West over the past decade. From matcha lattes to claims of being a super food etc. it's hard to escape the matcha craze. I have wanted to stock matcha for a long time, but with so many low quality variants on the market, I wanted to make sure the matcha we stocked was something I was proud of.
This matcha is made from the Okumidori cultivar, giving it a nutty and earthy depth. Though it still has the sweetness you would expect from a good matcha, its excellence lies in its creamy nature. This is a ceremonial grade matcha which indicates that it is meant to be drank straight (in a matcha bowl), however I can't deny it makes a mean matcha latte.
