Engineered specifically for the koicha drinker who demands a bold, grounding experience, this blend opens with an unexpected, bright herbal note reminiscent of fresh basil. This brightness quickly gives way to a dense, cocoa-like richness and deep umami. The finish lingers with a sophisticated blend of walnut and vanilla, evoking the complex sweetness of refined confections. When prepared as usucha, it retains a remarkable aromatic intensity and the signature body that distinguishes it from lesser, one-dimensional blends.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eTasting Notes \u0026amp; Profile\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"ul1\"\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"li1\"\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eFlavor:\u003c\/b\u003e Fresh basil, cocoa-like richness, and deep umami\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"li1\"\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eFinish:\u003c\/b\u003e Long-lasting notes of walnut and vanilla\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"li1\"\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eProfile:\u003c\/b\u003e Velvety, mellow, and exceptionally dense\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eHow to Prepare Sazumi Mukashi\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eUsucha (Thin Tea)\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eMatcha:\u003c\/b\u003e 1 to 2g (1 to 2 scoops)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eWater:\u003c\/b\u003e 60 to 70ml at 70 to 80°C (160 to 175°F)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col class=\"ol1\"\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"li1\"\u003eSift the matcha powder into a warm, dry tea bowl to remove clumps.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"li1\"\u003eAdd a small splash of water to form a smooth paste.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"li1\"\u003ePour in the remaining water and whisk briskly with a bamboo whisk (chasen) in a W or M motion until a fine foam appears.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"li1\"\u003eEnjoy a smooth, sweet, and aromatic bowl with a clean finish.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eKoicha (Thick Tea)\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eMatcha:\u003c\/b\u003e 3 to 4g (3 to 4 scoops)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eWater:\u003c\/b\u003e 30 to 40ml at 70°C (160°F)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col class=\"ol1\"\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"li1\"\u003eSift the matcha powder into a warm, dry tea bowl.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"li1\"\u003ePour the hot water directly over the sifted matcha.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"li1\"\u003eMix slowly with a bamboo whisk using gentle, kneading motions to create a thick, syrup-like consistency without foam.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"li1\"\u003eEnjoy a dense, creamy, and umami-forward tea.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e","brand":"Kanbayashi Shunsho","offers":[{"title":"40g","offer_id":44165100273836,"sku":"","price":26.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"100g","offer_id":44165100306604,"sku":"","price":62.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"200g","offer_id":45366706340012,"sku":null,"price":118.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0673\/9368\/3628\/files\/Sazumi_Mukashi.png?v=1782963792","url":"https:\/\/nishizawa-en.com\/zh-hans\/products\/sazumi-mukashi","provider":"Nishizawa En","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
