Uji matcha tea for making usucha (thin tea) or koicha.

Origin: Kyoto Prefecture, Japan

Shikibu no Mukashi is an excellent choice for those looking for an exceptionally tasty, uniquely flavoured usucha tea. A particularly full-bodied, intensely creamy, sweet matcha, which offers mild flavours and aromas of toasted seeds. Its creamy, umami-rich aftertaste lingers on the palate. True to the flavour of the next teas on the list, rather than offering more pronounced, characteristic flavours, it strengthens and maximises the intensity of refined, soft lines. Its high quality means it can even be prepared as a thick tea (koicha).
