Takasago

by Ujikoen宇治香園

高砂

Ujikoen's most affordable 30g matcha in this set, built around a refreshing attack and classic matcha bitterness that still carries through milk or sugar.

Takasago

Editorial verdict

The best value pick in the line for thin daily bowls or matcha lattes rather than formal koicha use.
