An Approachable Nishio Matcha
Tsukumo no Shiro is a versatile introduction to authentic Nishio matcha. Its brighter, slightly more astringent character makes it refreshing with water while remaining distinctive enough for milk and culinary recipes.
Usucha (straight matcha)
- Sift 2 g (about 1 tsp).
- Add 60–70 ml water at 70–80°C.
- Whisk briskly in an M‑motion for 15–20 seconds until glossy and foamy.
- Sip as is, or top with a little hot water to taste.
Matcha Latte
- Sift 2–3 g matcha.
- Whisk with 30–40 ml hot water (70–80°C) to a smooth, thick concentrate.
- Add 150–200 ml hot or iced milk of choice. (Full‑cream and oat both shine.)
- Sweeten with honey, sugar or maple syrup to taste
