OM(atcha)G!!!

This is the best matcha I have ever tasted. Hot or cold, it has a strong smooth flavour, creamy consistency, the most beautiful shade of vibrant green, and gives me plenty of jitter-free giddy up. I can't drink whatever stuff I was using before I discovered this brand. They do matcha to perfection. Love it. Mean it. Drink it.

How to Brew the Perfect Matcha Tea

Simply add a small amount of room temperature water to your matcha powder and make a paste.

Then add hot water, but make sure it's not boiling. It should be 75 to 80 degrees Celsius. Any hotter and you'll make your matcha taste bitter.

Whisk in "W" and "M" patterns with a chasen until it's frothy. It takes practice, so don't be disappointed if it's not perfect on your first try!
