“A refreshing aroma with a light, smooth finish — Wako Matcha.”

With its fresh fragrance, smooth texture, and refined, clean aftertaste, Wako is one of Marukyu Koyamaen’s most approachable usucha matcha. It has very little bitterness or astringency, allowing the natural umami to come through gently. This makes it an excellent choice both for tea gatherings and for casual everyday enjoyment. Its elegant flavor also pairs beautifully with traditional Japanese sweets as well as Western desserts and matcha lattes.

Recommended for:

• Those seeking a refined, easy-to-drink matcha with subtle flavor.

• Beginners who prefer a smooth and mild usucha.

• Matcha lovers wanting a versatile tea that complements both Japanese and Western sweets.

How to prepare (Usucha):

1. Sift ~1.5–2 g of matcha into a warmed bowl.

2. Add ~70 ml hot water (~80 °C).

3. Whisk briskly until fine froth forms.
