Camellia Sinensis - Matcha Kurogi (50g)

A high-grade, ceremonial, Japanese Matcha expertly produced and blended from three cultivars by Mr Oishi. Exquisitely refined, the brew is vibrant green in colour and boasts a dense, silky and creamy texture. The balance between its floral notes (orchid) and its vegetal freshness is simply superb. Its smooth flavours embody the richness of a tropical garden and the subtle aromas of milk chocolate seduce the palate. The lingering finish is remarkable. This is the Matcha to try for a truly special tasting experience.
