This can has no mention of the Ohio Tea Company on it, but it is important for me to referene them as they are the ones who provided this tin for the Ohio Tea Festival for me to brew for the participants of my presentation. I will admit I was skeptical at first because of the number of American companies that don’t know how to properly store or brew it… etc… However, these guys knew good matcha when they tasted it, and this stuff is legit. Please do not put it in lattes… You’ll miss so many amazing notes.
Dry Aroma: Chocolate. Fresh leaves being processed. Somewhat creamy. Slight umami on the back.
Dry Taste: Intense umami. Mouth watering. Ugh, I can’t wait to drink this.
Feel: SMOOOTH. So smooth. In both finger texture and mouth feel.
Flavor: Chocolate. Both bitter chocolate and milk chocolate. Also, a bit of burnt chocolate. The umami is very nice and plays nicely with the creamy notes.
