Oplev resultaterne af Nio Teas ' 4-trins te-smagningsmetode

Our evaluation of the Wazuka Tea Nakai Superior involved examining both the texture and flavor of the matcha, paying attention to its dryness, sweetness, minerality, and acidity. Additionally, we assessed its mouthfeel, considering the thickness or richness of its consistency. Finally, as a distinctive feature of matcha, we analyzed the tea's vegetal flavor, which is characteristic of all matcha varieties.

Trin 1 - Observation af udseendet

The color of the Wazuka Tea Nakai Superior is a darker jade green color and comes in a smooth powder

Trin 2 - Vurdering af aromaen

The aroma as the powder is mixed into the water is sweet and vegetal, with notes of white chocolate in the nose

Trin 3 - Smagning af teen

This Wazuka Tea Nakai Superior coats the palate with a velvety smooth mouthfeel, which eventually gives space for a strong umami flavor in the mid palate. There are notes of white chocolate, asparagus and artichoke, but for the most part the tea remains milky and smooth. The finish is strong in this umami note, but there is an ever so slight dryness to it that lingers on the palate.

Trin 4 - Evaluering af fornemmelsen på ganen

The matcha is rich and thick, which gives space for the vegetal taste characteristics to play around without being too harsh on the palate. There is no acidity, almost no dryness but a strong umami in the mid-palate and finish.

Nakai farm in japan

Produktions- og landmandssted

Information om gården

The production of the Wazuka Tea Nakai Superior is handled by the Nakai family, known for their expertise in cultivating Japanese green teas without using pesticides or chemicals. Mr. Nakai's father is credited as one of the pioneers of the JAS logo, which now appears on every organic certified tea label in Japan, indicating the family's long-standing commitment to producing organic tea.

Oprindeligt fra Kyoto

Japan

The Wazuka Tea Nakai Superior comes from an area outside of Kyoto that has a rich history of tea cultivation. In fact, the first tea plants grown in Japan were planted not too far from this region in 1192. Today, the area is still considered one of the most famous for the cultivation of Japanese green tea.

In particular, the region is well-known for its matcha. After tasting hundreds of matcha teas from all over Japan, Kyoto, Wazuka and Uji are the regions best represented. Matcha cultivation has been a significant part of this area for the last 400 years, and it shows no signs of slowing down!

Kultivar og teplantesort

The Wazuka Tea Nakai Superior is made from the Okumidori cultivar. These Okumidori teas have been really well received by our customers, and thats why we offer so many Okumidori matchas on our website.

  • Okumidori

    The Okumidori tea variety is highly regarded for its ability to produce teas with a smoother and fuller-bodied flavor profile. Often used in blends to counteract any bitterness, it is also sometimes used as a standalone ingredient. Despite being more challenging to cultivate, Okumidori is well worth the effort in creating teas such as the Washimine Ceremonial Matcha, which boasts a perfectly smooth finish devoid of any bitterness.
