Kan

by Ippodo一保堂

In stock at Amazon US

Buy on Amazon

A medium-rich Uji matcha from Ippodo with plentiful sweetness and umami richness, balanced by a slight refreshing bitterness. The aroma is pleasantly sweet and the finish is round and lingering. One of Ippodo's most well-rounded ceremonial grades, suited to both usucha and koicha.

Editorial verdict

A step up from Ikuyo — richer, rounder, and more satisfying. The balance of sweetness and umami is excellent. Solid choice for daily ceremonial preparation or lattes where you want more depth.

People report

Paraphrased from 22 people who describe their own cups, across 6 pages. Their views, not ours.

  • People report Kan as mild and well balanced, with soft sweetness, light vegetal or nutty notes and low bitterness. Opinions split: some find it plain or underwhelming and say it fades in lattes, others call it a favourite, and several say it improves at a lower water temperature (about 75C) or cold whisked. A few 2025 batches were reported fishy or seaweedy.[1][2][3][4][5][6]
