Discovered in Japan. Thrilled to Find in the U.S.
We just got back from a wonderful trip to Japan, where our hotel had the Ippodo Tea Uji Shimizu available in the lounge. We immediately fell in love with it. We made both hot or cold, with milk, and couldn’t get enough. On our final day, I pilfered a few extra packets, thinking that we would never get to have it again. We were overjoyed to find that Ippodo sells it here in the U.S.!
It is the same as we had in Japan, and it is sold in a larger container, so you can tailor the amount of tea to your exact taste. We could not be happier.
It is a sweetened matcha powder, so take that into account. For us, it is perfect.
