IPPODO Ikuyo no Mukashi Matcha Powder is a smooth and approachable ceremonial-style matcha crafted by Ippodo Tea, one of Kyoto's most respected tea specialists. Designed especially for beginners, this matcha offers a balanced flavor profile with gentle umami, mild bitterness, and a smooth finish that makes it easy to enjoy as part of a traditional tea experience.
Made from carefully selected domestic Japanese green tea leaves, the finely milled powder produces a vibrant green tea with a rich aroma and silky texture.
