Traditional Matcha

Green Tea by The Tea Haus

Matcha is a powdered green tea traditionally used in the Japanese Tea Ceremony. It is produced from the leaves of shade-grown tea and ground into a fine powder with a hand mill. This Matcha works well for cooking or ice cream.

The Tea Haus held a “Shades of Green” tea tasting today, so I got my green on! The first three teas we sampled were all Japanese greens, which I don’t usually like. I haven’t rated them, because I know already that I don’t like sencha and I don’t think it would be fair for me to rate one objectively since they all taste like butt to me.

So turns out that I don’t like matcha either! This offering had a very strong scent, very heavy and fishy. The taste was slightly less reeking of fish, but it was still very strong.
