Ceremonial Matcha (Latte Blend)

Description

This ceremonial matcha allows you to fully enjoy its aroma even when mixed with cold drinks. It's ideal for creating high-quality hot or iced matcha lattes.

We've finely blended varieties that offer good colour, umami, and a soft flavour, ensuring a vivid dark green colour perfect for premium matcha lattes. This matcha also pairs wonderfully with fruit purées, such as strawberry matcha and mango matcha.

Maison Koko is not liable for any loss of freshness or quality resulting from improper handling or storage once the pouch has been opened.
