Ippodo Nodoka Special Spring Matcha: Limited Edition - 20 grams - Available only once a year!

Experience the warmth and tranquillity of spring with Nodoka, Ippodo's exclusive seasonal Matcha. Carefully crafted to strike the perfect balance of umami and sharpness, Nodoka begins with a bright, sharp note that quickly softens into layers of sweetness and umami, accompanied by a clean, fresh aroma. The finish is slightly astringent, leaving a refreshing sensation on the palate.

Prepared as koicha, Nodoka’s flavours shine, showcasing a well-balanced combination of umami, astringency, and fragrance.

In a Matcha latte, its mild astringency complements the creaminess of the milk, resulting in a smooth, umami-forward drink that feels richer and more nuanced than lighter Matcha blends.

Nodoka is a versatile Matcha, offering a refined experience whether enjoyed traditionally or in modern preparations.
