Experience Uji Hikari Matcha

Our carefully sealed 30g bag is perfect for matcha enthusiasts seeking the purest form of this Japanese delicacy. Each bag includes instructions for preparing the perfect cup of matcha, allowing you to indulge in the rich flavor and smooth texture of this single cultivar and single origin matcha from Uji, Kyoto, Japan. Savor the true essence of Japanese tea culture with every sip.

1. ✂️ Open the Bag

   - Tear open the 30g Johnny Matcha bag and pull out the silver bag inside.

   - Shake the silver bag 2-3 times, flicking downward to loosen the matcha powder.

2. 🍵 Transfer Matcha

   - Carefully cut open the silver bag to avoid spilling the matcha powder.

   - Transfer the powder into the Johnny Matcha bag.

3. 💧 Soften Chasen (if using)

   - Soak the bristles with hot water for roughly 1 minute to ensure the bamboo is soft enough before whisking your matcha.

4. 🥄 Measure Matcha

   - Use 1 level teaspoon or two almond-sized chashaku scoops (traditional bamboo scooper).

   - Place the matcha into your chawan (matcha bowl) or cup.

5. 🌪️ Whisk or Shake Matcha

   - For a Chasen (matcha whisk): Pour 2 oz of water over the matcha powder (70-80°C or 160-175°F). Whisk in a "W" motion until the matcha is smooth and frothy.

   - For an electric whisk or shaker: Add 2-4 oz of water first, then the matcha. Blend or shake until no visible clumps can be seen and the matcha is frothy.

6. 🥛 Customize Your Matcha

   - Top off with more water to dilute if needed, or add milk/alternative milk to create a matcha latte.

7. 🥤 Enjoy!

8. ❄️ Store Properly

   - After using the matcha, make sure to zip the Johnny Matcha bag closed and store it in the refrigerator.
