Issho Matcha
$25.00
Earthy. Toasted. Balanced.
Issho in Japanese means 'together', and to us this refined barista-grade matcha is meant as an introduction to matcha and to bring people together.
Made from a custom blend of select cultivars from a 5th-generation, world-winning tea master, Issho is flavorful, refreshing, and well-balanced, with a bold shade of green. This premier matcha is smooth throughout, with an incredible fragrance, mild astringency, and a pleasant lingering aftertaste. We recommend Issho to bring freshness and brightness to your matcha lattes, smoothies or any confectionaries you desire.
