Tomo - Matcha

Tomo, or simply "friend", is the best way to describe this Matcha.

Grown in Kagoshima, this matcha is perfect for every day use. A natural balance of umami and sweetness, it blends perfectly with milk or to be drank on its own. When drank straight, it starts earthy, introducing an almost dark chocolate like appeal, and then leaving a bright citrus-like tone on the tongue.

Further Information

I find that this Matcha serves all my needs for daily drinking. Coming from the most southern point of Japan, I find that the weather down there creates the perfect balance for Matcha specifically. As a brewing tip, this matcha lends specifically well to a thinner matcha if you prefer to drink it straight, at 3g per 200ml of water. It brings out a sweetness otherwise not present which is another I find this tea so unique. I hope you find this tea well, and consider it as good as a companion, friend rather, to my day as you do.
