This usucha-style matcha (thin tea) is smooth and medium bodied, with a wonderfully grounding and steady energetic presence. Fresh, delicate notes of early spring grass spill forth from this blend of Samidori, Yabukita and Ujihikari cultivars. Sourced from an artisan in Kyoto, milling exquisite matcha since the 16th century. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBamboo Whisk (Chasen): A \u003cspan\u003etraditional bamboo whisk, of winter-cured bamboo, specially crafted to whisk powdered tea.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMatcha Ladle (Chashaku): \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eA chashaku is created from a single piece of bamboo, and used to scoop the proper proportion of matcha into a chawan, or tea bowl.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eShou Sugi Ban Matcha Bowl (Chawan): \u003c\/span\u003eLustrous black with an ample tea basin, the Shou Sugi Ban chawan\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eis a\u003cspan\u003e superb example of modern Japanese earthenware.
