Sho-no-Mukashi is a matcha bearing a tea name bestowed according to the Okonomi of Hounsai Sosho of Urasenke.
In the Japanese tea tradition, matcha can be prepared in two primary styles: Usucha (thin tea) and Koicha (thick tea), each revealing different expressions of the same tea.
Sho-no-Mukashi is recommended for both.
It opens with soft, rounded umami and a gentle sweetness.
The flavor has depth and body, yet never feels heavy.
As it develops, a subtle bitterness emerges, bringing clarity and balance, leading into a clean, refreshing finish.
The harmony of umami, sweetness, and bitterness is exceptionally well composed, allowing the drinker to quietly enjoy the gradual transition of flavors within a single bowl.

I love this matcha. The shipping was incredibly fast, and the matcha arrived fresh and beautifully packaged. As soon as I opened it, the color was a vibrant, rich green — exactly what high-quality matcha should look like.
The taste is smooth, clean, and fresh with no bitterness. You can tell it’s authentic and carefully sourced. Easily some of the best matcha I’ve had. Highly recommend if you care about quality.

+ fragrance, mild forward umami, sweet like fresh uncook peas (good thing), very creamy
- not as vibrant green as Fuji no Shiro, chalky, nothing special.
Overall it’s good, can describe as the overlooked middle child 🤣

There's not much that needs to be said asides from the fact that the quality of the matcha is amazing. I will say that this is a minor thing but DHL takes a really long time to ship. It was stuck in customs for the longest time until I received mine today. At least we don't have to pay tariff's on tea which is good.
