Ito En - Jyuen

🍵 Ito En – Jyuen

Color: Light green, clear liquor, evenly fine powder.
Flavor: Steamed young grass, boiled white beans, subtle cooked greens, and a touch of lightly roasted rice. The taste is mild, clean, and easy to drink.
Umami: Moderate — not overly rich but with a clear, balanced foundation.
Sweetness: Naturally light sweetness in the aftertaste, smooth without sharpness.
Bitterness/Astringency: Slight on the tip of the tongue if prepared strong, fades quickly and doesn’t linger.
Fineness: Good fineness, sifts easily, dissolves well, and forms a smooth foam when whisked properly.

✅ Best for: Daily usucha, refreshing cold whisking, beginners, or anyone who prefers a gentle, approachable matcha.
