Chawa

by Saijoen西条園

茶和(さわ)茶和(さわ)

An approachable everyday usucha with a green-tea-like profile. Saijoen recommends it for daily drinking, tea practice, and recipes where a refined astringency helps the matcha character stand out.

Chawa

Editorial verdict

Saijoen's entry usucha that works equally well for casual whisking and milk-based applications.
