Size:500g bag In the tea ceremony, there are two ways to make green tea: light and dark. The dark tea tea ceremony is said to be of higher class, and the Matcha is needed together into a paste. Light tea is more casual, and a foam is created with the matcha, using a bamboo whisk. The dark tea ceremony gives a higher concentration green tea, and therefore, the quality of the matcha is more evident. All matcha can be brewed as a light tea.Dark tea involves needing the tea into a concentrated paste, so it is not suited for average grade tea with strong bitterness and astringency.
