Frequently Asked Questions
Is this matcha suitable for lattes?
Yes. Its smooth texture, vivid color, and very low bitterness make it especially well suited for premium matcha lattes, both hot and iced.
Is it also suitable for usucha?
Yes. While it shines in lattes, it also offers satisfying quality for traditional usucha thanks to its clean umami and refined balance.
Who is the 100g size best for?
Regular matcha drinkers, especially those making matcha lattes several times a week. The 100g size offers better value per gram and keeps your routine uninterrupted.
How should I store matcha?
Keep cool and dry. Refrigerate after opening if possible. Avoid light, heat, humidity, and moisture. Reseal tightly after each use.
Why does matcha sometimes become clumpy?
High-quality stone-milled matcha is extremely fine, so it can be affected by static electricity and humidity. This is natural. We recommend sifting before use.
