Sairi Ceremonial Matcha — 100 g / 3.5 oz
From Mie Prefecture, Japan
Sairi comes from the first harvest in Mie Prefecture, Japan. The blend brings together five tea cultivars: Okumidori, Saemidori, Asatsuyu, Saeakari and Yabukita. Each cultivar is a variety of tea plant.
Taste the matcha in your latte
Sairi brings umami, sweetness and body to your cup. Its flavor comes through when you add milk, making it a choice for the latte you make at home. Try it without syrup first, then adjust to your taste.
Make it your way
Whisk Sairi with water to taste the tea on its own, or add milk for a latte. Start with 2 g for a cup with water and 2–3 g for a latte. Sifting before whisking helps prevent clumps. Use water at 160–175°F rather than straight from the boil.
Your 100 g pouch
Keep Sairi on hand for your matcha routine. This 100 g pouch makes about 50 cups using 2 g per cup, or 33 lattes using 3 g each. Close the package after use and keep it away from heat, light and moisture.
