Taste the whole journey of matcha!
50g of our pristine tencha is paired with 40g of our signature, hand-harvested Kokoro matcha green tea and discounted as a bundled set. Try tencha as a loose leaf tea, and then whisk up our hand-harvested Kokoro Mizuba Matcha to see the relationship of flavor from raw to finished state.
Tencha:
Aroma: the pure essence of Japan.
Flavor profile: sweet umami, buttered toast, lightly toasted grain, adzuki bean.
Matcha:
Aroma: milk chocolate
Flavor profile: whisk up Kokoro's froth and you'll taste ample, smooth umami. From start-to-finish of your sip, you'll experience layers of complex flavor, including a silky, balanced sweetness reminiscent of red wine. As one tea blogger puts it, "I don’t even have words in English or Japanese to describe it."
How to brew:
- Warm your chawan tea bowl with hot water.
- Place 1.5-2g (1 tsp) of matcha into your chawan.
- Add 1 ounce of 160ºF-175ºF water to the tea and make koicha (a thick paste).
- Add about another 1.5-2 ounces of water.
- Whisk with your chasen until the tea is fully aerated to make usucha.
- Enjoy!

Tencha + Matcha Bundle

Matcha begins as tencha -- the term used to designate properly shade-grown tea leaves destined to become matcha.
How To Make Matcha

It's time to make matcha! Spoon two chashaku scoops (1 tsp) into your matcha bowl or cup.

Add 1 oz. 160-175º F water. Work chasen (bamboo whisk) in a circle to make a paste.

Add another 2-4 oz. water and whisk the tea in an M-shape motion until frothy. Enjoy!
Stone Milled
All Mizuba matcha is stone milled in Japan. This time-intensive process leads to a depth of flavor not found in conventional teas.
