The leaf is shade-grown for an extended period and stone-ground on traditional granite wheels, preserving a vivid emerald color, nuanced aroma, and a deep, inviting sweetness. This meticulous process aims to deliver a vibrant, well-rounded cup without chalkiness, making it suitable for a range of preparations from traditional tea ceremonies to modern cafe-style drinks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNotes of hazelnut and chocolate mingle with a creamy body and a clean finish, creating a versatile profile that shines whether whisked thin (Usucha) or thick (Koicha).
