Ippodo Tea flavor note: Rich & Replenishing
Ippodo tasting notes: We recommend Seiun for the matcha fan looking for a tea with a full (but not overwhelming) character. With a hearty umami and sweet taste, its aftertaste is long and elegant. We recommended trying this matcha as koicha to experience the full depth and nuances of its character. As usucha, Seiun is deeply satisfying, a standby at teatime. For matcha lattes, we usually recommend a medium-to-light category matcha with more astringency, but some will choose Seiun for its bright color and its umami-rich profile.
