Tencha + Matcha Bundle

$91.00 Regular price $102.00

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!
