Matcha is known for the Japanese traditional tea ceremony that strictly follows rules and rituals.
You can enjoy matcha more casually, but there are certain things you shouldn’t skip.
Here are the essential steps to a casual and yet nice bowl of matcha:
1) Preheat the bowl. Pour some hot water to the bowl, discard the water, and wipe the bowl.
2) Sift 1 teaspoon (1 1/2 chashaku, or 3g) of matcha into the bowl.
3) Pour 2oz (60 cc) hot water. Whisk vigorously with chasen (bamboo whisk) until the tea is frothy.
4) Enjoy your matcha straight from the bowl!
-Do not skip sifting! Matcha tends to clump together and sifting is the key to avoid lumps in your matcha. Wiping the bowl dry is also an important step to avoid lumps.
-If you don’t have a bamboo whisk, you can use a small milk frother.
-Have some sweets with matcha. Sweets and matcha compliment each other. When paired with small confections, matcha will taste better. Here, white chocolate chips are served.

Have you cold brewed yuzu sencha?
Cold brewing brings out the zesty yuzu and is very refreshing in summer!
Just put 2 grams of yuzu sencha (or 1 teabag) in a cup of cold water and wait for 20 minutes.
Have a good summer with Jugetsudo tea!

We had fun at the World Tea Expo 2018 in Las Vegas last week. Outside was over 100F, but inside of the convention center was nice and cool—-perfect to sample hot green tea!
We met a lot of tea lovers and Ricardo Caicedo was among them. Ricardo is a tea blogger and in fact he wrote about Jugetsudo in his blog, My Japanese Green Tea.
Ricardo was born in Columbia and he prefers tea, especially green tea, over coffee. He is the first Colombian to obtain the certification of Japanese Tea Advisor by the Nihoncha (Japanese Tea) Instructor Association!
His mission is to spread the word about Japanese tea culture.
Thank you Ricardo!
