matcha hoei

in the oldest part of shimane prefecture、 where legends of wisdom and the beauty of nature intertwine with reality、 emerges the unique matcha hoei。 a tea that reflects the spirit of centuries and the mystery of the untamed expanses of izumo。

there、 diligent farmers cultivate、 harvest、 and then cool、 steam、 and dry the once lush green leaves of yabukita。 it is from these leaves that they prepare the monocultural and independent tea。

• warm the chawan with hot water
• sift 2g of matcha — approximately 2 chashaku — into the chawan
• add 80ml of water at 70〜80°C
• whisk with a bamboo whisk — chasen — for 30 seconds、moving it in a “w” motion
