Indulge in the richest matcha in our offering for moments of self-care this month. In a latte, it's creamy and even unctuous; straight, it's robust, complex, and luscious.

A sample size—ten servings—of the Ikuyo blend. This medium-rich matcha blend is our first recommendation for those who like to make lattes, but it is also delicious straight.
