Umami: Moderately strong — focused and clear at the center of the palate.
Sweetness: Gentle in the aftertaste, smooth without sharpness.
Bitterness/Astringency: Slight touch on the tip of the tongue when brewed strong.
Texture: Nicely fine; easy to whisk into a smooth, even foam.

✅ Best suited for: Bold usucha, refined cold-whisking, and elevated daily matcha moments (for palates with taste and a touch of luxury).
