Use: Specialty Matcha Cafes, Home
Recommended Brewing Proportions:
Koicha or thick viscous matcha with a paste-like consistency. It is typically served at formal tea ceremonies and shared amongst guests. Great for when you want to savour the full richness of matcha but could be rather strong taken on its own.
Typical Matcha:Water ratio: 4g:30ml
Best served hot 70-80°C
For a treat, we recommend Koicha served over ice cream (Matcha Affogato) or over chilled milk (Dirty Matcha).
Usucha or thin matcha is the tea more commonly served at Japanese tea ceremonies. It is typically served to guests at the end of a meal and with a sweet to balance any bitterness of the tea. Great for enjoying matcha with a light, smooth taste.
Typical Matcha:Water ratio: 2g:45-60ml
Best served hot 70-80°C
Clear Matcha or very mild matcha with the same nutrients in a cup. We recommend this drink for a fine balance of rich taste, aroma and colour which can be enjoyed longer than an usucha.
Typical Matcha:Water ratio: 2.5g:150ml
Serve Hot 70-80°C or over ice
