How to enjoy the Dōjin no Tomo matcha:
This smooth and balanced blend is best enjoyed as usucha (thin-style matcha)
To start, we recommend:
-
Sift 1.5 g (3/4 tsp.) of tea powder through a fine mesh sieve. Add to chawan (tea bowl).
-
Bring 80 ml of fresh water to a boil and let cool to 80°~85°C.
-
Slowly add water to tea powder and whisk for 20 seconds, until small bubbles appear.
Next time, adjust proportions to taste.
Enjoy.
