Deluxe Matcha Kit

I've been enjoying green tea for years, and decided to dip my toes into matcha with this kit. After plenty of research, Ippodo came up again and again. After a week of using this kit the quality and beauty of the pieces cannot be understated, to say nothing of the tea itself, which is delicious. I look forward to continuing to explore matcha using Ippodo, this kit has cemented them as a go-to for quality.

I splurged for the premium kit and have been very happy. As with my other tea ware purchases from Ippodo, the items are well made and a delight to use. In particular, your money in this purchase goes towards more premium matcha and a prettier brewing vessel. Neither of these are required to start whipping' up tasty matcha at home. However, if you would get enjoyment integrating a prettier bowl in to your matcha routine, then I think you would also enjoy this set. Personally, the bowl included in this set is wonderful.

In terms of Ummon, it was not my first tin. Ummon is an incredibly delicious tea. It is like having experienced "matcha" before and then experiencing it in all capitals: "MATCHA". If you have only had lower quality or culinary grade matcha, then I would compare the experience to enjoying drip coffee and home and then experiencing a potent, full-flavored cup of coffee from your favorite local cafe. I like to have one of Ippodo's higher-end matchas, like Ummon, for a treat on weekend mornings or when I want to splurge.

It’s really the best matcha. The kit has everything you need and wonderful quality. Well worth the money. I love it so much.

I enjoyed making matcha with this set. High-grade matcha in a beautiful chawan from Mino, Gifu.

Nice package! Highly recommended!

Love it!
