Brewing Tips
First...
- Take a deep breath. Exhale slowly.
- Soak your chasen (whisk) for 30 seconds
- Clean and wipe dry your bowl
Here are two ways to enjoy your Halo.
Thick tea (Koicha):
- 4g (0.14oz) matcha
- 40ml water at 80℃ (176℉)
Thin tea (Usucha):
- 2g (0.07oz) matcha
- 60ml water at 80℃ (176℉)
Basic Process:
- Sift the measured amount of matcha into the bowl (4g for Koicha and 2g for Usucha)
- First add a small amount of water (5 to 10 ml or 1-2 tsp) and whisk away until you have a smooth, rich mixture
- Then add hot water according to the quantities and temperatures shown above
- Continue whisking. Slow at first, increasing to a 'whipping' speed. Moving the chasen in a Z pattern helps reaching the perfect consistency (think soft ice cream for Koicha and a bubble-free creamy top for Usucha)
Enjoy your time making it as much as you will enjoy drinking it!
Packaging
Inside a classy, screw-top matte white metal tin, you'll find our recyclable 30 gram pouches, which will keep your Halo matcha dry and protected from UV rays, helping keeping its aroma and flavor.
