Ippodo Tea flavor note: Medium & Balanced

Ippodo tasting notes: Brisk fall afternoons call for matcha paired with sweets, cookies, and desserts. We blend Tsukikage to be the perfect matcha for daily matcha drinking this season. When you prepare Tsukikage, the first thing you notice is its vibrant color. When you take a sip, you’ll first taste its crisp astringency, followed by layers of sweetness and umami. It’s a not-too-light and not-too-rich blend, popular with matcha drinkers of all levels. Try Tsukikage straight to enjoy its natural sweetness and nuances. Matcha fans will appreciate it as koicha, where it displays a more robust flavor. We also recommend it in a matcha latte, where its mild astringency pairs well with the creaminess of the milk.
