I ordered Isuzu matcha from Marukyu Koyamaen along with Wako, Unkaku, and Yugen. Isuzu was the most vegetal and spinachy of the four matchas and had the most astringency, with only slight bitterness. I have prepared it as usucha many times, and it is always refreshing and delightful. Its astringency is like a subtle citrusy twang in the mouth. This edge to Isuzu’s flavor produces a lovely cleansing feeling. I will be purchasing it again.
