Common Wisdom
Frequently Asked
What determines the quality of Akatsuki Matcha?
Our quality is defined by the spring harvest in Uji, where only the most tender tencha leaves are stone-ground to preserve their vibrant emerald color and delicate nutrient profile.
How should I properly store my matcha?
Matcha is sensitive to light, heat, and moisture. To maintain freshness, store your tin in a cool, dark place or in the refrigerator, ensuring the lid is tightly sealed after every ritual.
What is the best way to prepare a bowl of Akatsuki Matcha?
Sift 1-2 grams of powder into a bowl, add 70ml of hot (not boiling) water at 80°C, and whisk vigorously with a bamboo chasen in a zig-zag motion until a thick, creamy froth forms on the surface.
How do the Daily, Bushi, and Shogun grades differ?
Our Daily grade is robust for lattes; Bushi offers an invigorating harmony for focused everyday drinking; while Shogun is our highest ceremonial grade, reserved for special moments of profound umami and stillness.
Is Akatsuki Matcha sustainably sourced?
