Matcha Seremonial Jobetsugi (Grade Tipis)

The first spring harvest really comes through — there's a deep savory note under the green that I wasn't expecting from a thin grade. Whisked up smooth with almost no grit, and it stays vivid rather than turning bitter halfway through the bowl.

I usually drink this first thing in the morning, and the savory depth really comes through compared to the flat stuff I've had before. You can tell it's a first spring harvest from Wazuka Valley — the color is a deep, vivid green. Genuinely the best thin-grade matcha I've bought.

Whisked this up thin for my afternoon break and the savory umami really comes through before the sweetness. Grown in the Wazuka Valley shade, you can tell it's a proper ceremonial grade — no bitterness at all, even when I use a bit less water.
