Experience the pinnacle of Tsujiri Ichi Honten’s finest matcha—a rich, full-bodied flavor with a refreshing aftertaste that unfolds in perfect harmony, filling your mouth before gently fading away.
This is the highest-quality matcha from Tsujiri Ichi Honten’s selection, offering an unparalleled depth of flavor. Whether prepared as koicha (thick tea) or usucha (thin tea), its luxurious, umami-rich character remains undeniable.
Enjoy it alongside matcha sweets like matcha chocolate, or use it to craft premium café-style drinks such as matcha lattes and matcha au lait.
How to Prepare Koicha (Thick Matcha)
- Warm the tea bowl by filling it with hot water.
- Lightly whisk the water with a chasen (bamboo whisk) to warm it as well.
- Discard the water and wipe the inside of the bowl dry.
- Sift 3g of matcha (about three scoops with a chashaku) into the bowl.
- Gently pour 100cc of hot water (90°C) into the bowl.
- Using the chasen, mix the matcha slowly in a vertical motion, ensuring it dissolves smoothly without creating foam. Be gentle to avoid damaging the whisk.
- Traditionally, a single bowl of koicha is shared among multiple guests. However, when preparing it at home, you may enjoy it individually.
