✨Izumi no Shiro✨ made me fall in love with vegetal matcha even more. It has everything you want in a great latte matcha—grassy and vegetal without any astringency, plus a smooth, creamy texture and a rich umami flavor that shines when you add milk. Definitely worth trying if you’re searching for an everyday matcha for lattes 🥰✨

Updated matcha availability 🍵
Only a few tins left! Thank you all for your recent orders — we’re almost cleared out and getting ready to bring in new tins soon 👀
🍵

For all the nutty matcha lovers 🤎🍵 this matcha has an aroma like freshly opened roasted nuts, leading into a warm, bold cashew-like nuttiness that lingers from start to finish. Medium-bodied with a gentle umami kick, almost no bitterness, and very low astringency — just smooth, easy drinking. Creamy with that subtle sandy mid-palate feel you get from nut-forward Yame-style matchas. Truly underrated and not talked about enough.

🍃Beautiful from the tin to the powder color, Horii Shichimeien never disappoints—absolutely stunning 🥰🥰

🍃Uji Mukashi: It has a lovely vegetal aroma with a hint of boiled beans once water is added. Super creamy yet still light and refreshing, with a smooth, velvety mouthfeel.
As an usucha, there’s a slight bitterness but it’s not unpleasant at all—nicely balanced by a gentle sweetness in the finish.

As a latte, it keeps its creaminess and umami without getting washed out.

🍃Agata no Shiro: Exceptionally smooth with a beautifully balanced profile. Upon opening, it releases a sweet, fresh grassy-floral aroma. Once whisked, notes of vanilla and honey emerge. The matcha itself is naturally sweet and creamy
As usucha, it’s mellow and refined; as a latte, it stays creamy and aromatic without losing its character.

Overall, I really love this brand 🙂‍↕️🫶 Perfect for daily drinking if you like a slightly bold profile but don’t want anything too heavy or overwhelming 😽
