Sayaka – Ippodo
Entry-level ceremonial grade matcha, 40g tin variant of Horai no Mukashi.
Sayaka is the same beloved matcha as Horai no Mukashi, offered in a larger 40g tin format. This smooth blend with umami and just a hint of astringency remains Ippodo's recommended first taste, serving both beginners and connoisseurs alike with its bright color and soft astringency.
Flavor Profile: Smooth blend with umami and hint of astringency, featuring bright color and soft, approachable character.
Tasting Notes:
• Usucha: Accessible and smooth with umami and hint of astringency, suitable for all experience levels
• Koicha: Full depth and nuances of character become prominent in thick tea preparation
• Latte: Bright color and umami with soft astringency create pleasant milk-based preparations
