{"product_id":"matcha0-yugen-original-blend","title":"Uji Matcha #0 (Matcha Latte \u0026 Usucha) - YUGEN","description":"\u003cp\u003eMatcha #0 is an original blend created as an everyday matcha, designed to fit naturally into daily life. In general, the more a matcha is crafted to bring out deep umami and sweetness, the rarer it becomes, and the higher its grade tends to be. However, this is not simply a matter of better or worse quality, but of finding the style of enjoyment best suited to each tea. Matcha #0 offers mellow umami and a clean, gentle astringency. When prepared as usucha, it reveals a well-defined tea character with a clear, refreshing finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt also retains its matcha character beautifully in a latte. Because it is made to be enjoyed as usucha as well, its flavor remains present even when combined with milk. The sweetness of the milk softens the cup, while matcha’s gentle bitterness adds balance and a clean finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-info__block-item\" data-block-type=\"separator\"\u003e\u003chr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e【 Production \u0026 Cultivar Information 】\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n    Category ：Usucha(Light Matcha)\u003cbr\u003e\n    Origin : Uji, Kyoto\u003cbr\u003e\n    Cultivars： Gokou, Komakage, Yabukita, Saemidori, Okumidori\u003cbr\u003e\n    Harvest : Shear-harvested\u003cbr\u003e\n    Harvest Season ：First Flush\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e【How to Make an Authentic Matcha Latte】\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e■ Ingredients (for 1 serving)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n    ・Matcha: 3~4 g\u003cbr\u003e\n    ・Hot water (80°C \/ 176°F): 50 ml\u003cbr\u003e\n    ・Milk: 150 ml (such as cow’s milk, soy milk, or oat milk)\u003cbr\u003e\n    ・Sugar: to taste\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e■ Instructions\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003e1.
