Descriptions:
Entry grade Usucha (thin tea) of Yamamasa Koyamaen
Uji matcha tea for making usucha (thin tea).

Tasting notes: Orange peel, dark chocolate, coffee, grassy, creamy.
Origin: Kyoto Prefecture, Japan
A bold but pleasant usucha tea offering an experience of fresh, tender, green flavours together with a hint of astringency and a touch of creaminess. Use 80-85°C water to prepare the tea, as more astringent flavours become dominant at lower temperatures.
The meaning of Matsukaze "松風" :
The compound "Matsukaze" is made up of "pine" and "wind" respectively. During tea ceremonies, the sound of the boiling water in the tea kettle is likened to the wind blowing through a pine forest.
