Matcha Tea at Matcha Sweets Kaminari Issa. VR180 Virtual Tasting

Day 2. Asakusa.
Matcha is a green tea that is made from Matcha tea plant that are shade-grown for three to four weeks before harvest. Because the tea leaves have not been expose to direct sun light, when picked right after it buds, it yields a tea powder that is not bitter but has a sweet, nutty flavor. Where other green tea are steeped in hot water, the Macha Tea leaves are grounded into powder and served suspended in hot water by whipped the powder and water into a foamy hot cup of yummy goodness.
