This is the second time trying this tea. Knowing that I would enjoy the taste of the tea I wanted to try a new change in scenery while I enjoyed my tea. According to the rituals of a Japanese tea ceremony, setting the mood for tea consumption with decor helps you experience the tea even more. So, to match it’s bittersweet taste I made the tea in front of a bamboo plant (the strong bitterness)and an orchid (elegant sweetness). The taste was even more vibrant while enjoying the sight of these plants in front of me. I also coupled my matcha tea this time with a sweet and light snack. A rice cake with red bean inside. It was a great balance of flavor. I would definitely recommend
