Tea Powder 

This guide will help you enjoy the perfect cup of tea using tea powder by preserving its delicate flavours and nutrients.

What You'll Need:

  1. Your preferred type of Japanese Tea Powder
  2. Chawan (tea bowl)
  3. Chasen (bamboo whisk)
  4. Chashaku (bamboo matcha scoop)
  5. Sifter (for sifting matcha)

Recommended Water Temperature for Different Grades of ODAYA Tea Powder:

Culinary Grade: 70℃-75℃

Beverage Grade: 65℃-70℃

Ceremonial Grade: 60℃-65℃

Instructions:
 1. Measure an appropriate amount of tea powder (about one chashaku) and sift it into the chawan to prevent clumping.
2. Pour hot water at the specified temperature into the chawan.
3. Use the chasen to whisk the tea quickly. Start with slow, circular motions to fully combine the matcha with the water, then increase speed, whisking in a “W” shape to create foam. Continue whisking until fine foam appears on the surface.
4. When a fine foam appears on the surface of the tea, stop whisking and enjoy.

Important Notes:

Temperature: High water temperatures can destroy the nutritional components and taste of tea. Under no circumstances should the water temperature exceed 80℃. Higher-grade tea powder is more sensitive to temperature. Lower water temperatures preserve the delicate texture and unique aroma of tea, preventing high heat from destroying its fresh taste and nutrients.

Whisking Technique: Hand-whisked foam is finer and more delicate. Foam created with a frother may be larger and dissipate quickly.

Powder Ratio: Adjust the amount of tea powder according to personal taste for each serving.


Tea Leaves

What You'll Need:

  1. Your preferred type of Japanese green tea
  2. A teapot or a glass bottle
  3. A measuring spoon
  4. Ice (optional)
  5. Room temperature or cold water 
Instructions:

Measure the Tea: Depending on the type of tea, measure the appropriate amount of tea leaves.

  • For Shincha, use 4-6g (approximately 2 teaspoons).
  • For Gyokuro, use 7-8g (approximately 3 teaspoons).
  • For Sencha, use 4-6g (approximately 2 teaspoons).
  • For Genmaicha and Hojicha, use 7-8g (approximately 3 teaspoons).

    Jyu | Ceremonial Jyu grade tea leaves come from the mid-section of the tea plant, offering a more robust flavour compared to the higher grades. This grade is noted for its slightly stronger astringency, appealing to those who enjoy a more pronounced green tea taste.
