Kohata is built on the Samidori cultivar which is famed for its soft sweetness, bright green color, and elegant finish. We love this matcha for a lighter more refreshing experience that boasts a pillowy mouthfeel, rich fragrance, and a balanced umami. This is a thoroughly refined offering that excels as usucha while retaining its complexity in milk. Expect a lot of beautiful Uji Aromatics- the unique ambrosial aroma of the spring.
