Ippodo - Nodoka Special Spring Matcha (Seasonal matcha)

Ippodo, founded in 1717, is a long established Kyoto tea house known for its careful selection and traditional crafting of Japanese tea. Sourced from the region’s renowned growing areas, their blends offer clarity, depth and consistency, reflecting more than three centuries of expertise.

Nodoka is a well balanced matcha with a medium body and a fresh, inviting aroma. On the palate, you'll first notice a gentle hint of astringency, followed by layers of natural sweetness and rich umami.

Enjoyed on its own, Nodoka's delicate balance of umami, sweetness and freshness really shines through. In a matcha latte, its subtle astringency complements the milk beautifully, creating a smooth, mellow drink with a deeper umami flavour than our lighter blends
