A high quality sencha prepared with matcha. The deliciousness of “nigori,” exactly as if you had prepared it in a small teapot.

Another Coca-cola iced tea (the vending machine by the center where I have my program is Coca-cola brand, can you tell?). I confess I have no idea what they are getting at with the “nigori” thing since it’s a term that usually used to refer to unfiltered sake. Unfiltered tea? Maybe! I have my doubts about the whole high quality thing too, and anyway, it’s probably wasted on an iced tea.
I didn’t find this tea particularly memorable. It was cool, which was the important thing. It’s got a bitterness to it that does sort of remind me of matcha, which was kind of nice, but that only came to it as it warmed up a bit more. Straight from the vending machine it mostly just tasted cool and green-ish. The matcha thing is neat, but I’d still put it below Sokenbicha since that at least catches my attention while I am drinking it.
Ayataka is a very popular bottled beverage in Japan and to speak the truth also my personal favorite. The trouble character of it’s liquor adds to the authentic experience of a freshly infused loose leaf Japanese Green Tea. It also has a slightly bitter character and sufficient sweetness to make it a favorable drink to consume on a rather hot day.
Flavors: Bitter, Butter, Cookie, Peat, Sweet
