Midweek Matcha - O-Cha's Uji Organic Matcha
Today I tried Uji OrganicMatcha from O-Cha. I did not expect much from this matcha because O-Cha sells two
powdered senchas for roughly the same price, so I was surprised by how good it
was. It’s a tiny bit bitter and less complex then higher quality matchas, but
this is probably the best matcha I had at this price point. When brewed it
makes a lovely deep green, I was surprised at how dark it became, but at the
same time I was disappointed I couldn’t get it to foam that much. Next time I’ll
have to make it with a different chawan.
According to my experience, organic Matcha is not complex in its taste. But this is also advantageous: Middle grades are not so bitter like conventional Matcha.
ReplyDeleteLooks like it might be worth trying this Matcha :)
Yeah, I rarely have had a complex organic matcha, but then again most of the organic matchas I have tried, like you said, have been middle grades.
DeleteIt's definitely worth trying, a lot of flavor for the price.
