Mandaracha

When I say this is one of the best that I’ve ever had I am saying a lot. I drink mine plain. And I’ve tried a ton of matcha from many different companies. Mandarcha is an amazing company. If you are ever in Kyoto make sure to put it on your Must Do List. It is there that I discovered this matcha. I fell in love with the incredible aroma. Something I can’t quite put into words but after visiting a matcha milling facility in Nara I’ve realized that matcha literally smells like matcha. Sure you could say creamy, a bit vegetal, with some unique marine hints but this is just the smell of high-quality, fresh matcha. And the coloring is divine. A gorgeous green. I feel so melancholy seeing the last of the powder going into my chawan. T_T. It’s available online but just not the same as purchasing it in-store. Oh, so creamy. The texture is absolutely amazing. The powder stays suspended fabulously. This pairs well with Ghibli’s music.
