Chikiriya - Uji Matcha with Tea Strainer (1.06oz) 30 g

Product specificity

Finely stone ground matcha

Tencha is the name for the tea leaves used to make matcha. Tencha leaves that have been covered for about 30 days are steamed and then dried without kneading. The final step to make matcha is to carefully grind the tencha leaves with a stone. The resulting product is known as matcha.

By grinding the tea leaves with a millstone the grains become finer. As a result, we get a high-quality matcha with a pleasant and mellow taste and easy to foam.

The process takes a very long time as well. Usually, it takes one hour to grind 40g of matcha.
