Ikuyo is a well-balanced matcha that brings together a gentle harmony of astringency, umami, and sweetness. Its medium-light body carries a bright, straw-like aroma that feels both comforting and refreshing. Enjoyed as usucha, it’s an ideal choice for everyday teatime—whether on its own or alongside sweets.

Also one of the top picks for matcha lattes, Ikuyo’s mild astringency blends beautifully with milk, and its vivid green color creates a picture-perfect cup.
