MIZUHO
Premium Organic Sencha & Matcha Blend
Description
Sencha and matcha together - the best of the green tea universe in your cup! Carefully prepared by Koga san for IKKYU, this sweet and fragrant green tea is a blend of organic sencha and ceremonial organic matcha, both made from Yabukita cultivar.
A stunning and delicious green tea, with a vibrant and luminous color, this tea is exactly what you need during summer. You will be amazed by the absolute lack of bitterness of MIZUHO. This special blend was made by Koga san with one goal in mind: creating a refreshing and healthy drink to cope with the hot and humid summer in Kyushu.
Prepare it as a regular sencha to enjoy it hot, or for delicious iced tea, mix 5g of leaves with 500ml of cold water in a bottle, store in the fridge for about an hour, and it's ready! As an extra benefit, you can refill the bottle using the same leaves a couple of times over twenty-four hours.

GermanyBalanced and Energetic Tea
The matcha taste is very present, but it fades with following brews. The first and second brew were enough to give a lot of energy and alertness as you would expect with a matcha. This tea especially shines when ice or cold brewed. Using those brewing methods the taste reaches its full potential in my opinion. You also don't need as many leaves (only 5g for 500ml). Will definitely be buying this tea for cold brewing again.
