Jingai-no-Mukashi

A matcha especially favoured by Master Zabōsai of the Urasenke tea school. Matcha can be prepared in two distinct ways: as "usucha" (thin tea) or "koicha" (thick tea), each offering a unique experience of matcha's flavours. Jingai-no-Mukashi is particularly recommended for koicha.

  2. Steam and froth 180 ml of your preferred milk.
  3. Pour the milk into the freshly whisked matcha.
  4. Sweeten if desired.
  5. Sip, stir, and enjoy your comforting hot matcha latte.

How to make usucha (thin matcha)

  1. Heat a chawan (tea bowl) with hot water.
  2. Soften a chasen (bamboo whisk) by lowering the bristles into the hot water.
  3. Empty the water from the chawan, and dry the bowl thoroughly with a soft cloth.
  4. Sift 1 teaspoon of Matcha into the chawan, and whisk together with 60-70 ml of 75-85°C (170-185°F) filtered water using the softened chasen.
  5. Use a M or W motion with your wrist, avoiding scraping the bottom and sides of the chawan.
  6. Once frothy, gently lift the chasen from the centre of your chawan.
  7. Enjoy your fresh bowl of matcha.
