Great video! My wife owns a couple of tea ceremony shops for foreigners in Kyoto (called Camellia) and I help out a lot. I'm sure I have made well over 10,000 bowls of matcha in the last few years. Here is my method of making a perfect usucha. 1) Drag the whisk very slowly around to spread out the powder in the water, breaking up clumps and allowing the matcha to dissolve. 2) Start whisking vigorously, moving backwards and forwards very fast, and side to side very slowly. It's all in the wrist. 3) Most importantly: SLOW DOWN SLOWLY. Start really fast and slowly decrease the speed as if you are a robot and your batteries are empty. It takes about 30 seconds of whisking. Following the steps will give you a perfectly creamy froth with no large bubbles every time.

They're sometimes called froth wands. I use old fashioned whisks myself. If you keep the whisk near the bottom and stir you get a thicker froth with smaller bubbles, when you pull the whisk out of the liquid, or stir it near the top, you get larger bubbles. Sorry, I'm a coffee guy. I love tea as well so I am learning a ton from you. Thanks!

You have a very beautiful wife! I recently decided to get into matcha when I remembered enjoying matcha flavored pogi(might be wrong) and one time I ordered a knife from Japan and they gave me a tea bag with tea that had a grassy flavor and I remember liking it. Well, I remember being at a family gathering and my relatives are "hippies" they were drinking this weird drink and asked if I wanted to try some and I said sure. Well, I remember feeling oddly amazing calm but alert. My parent joked there was probably marijuana in it but, thinking back I think it was matcha! It was cold and I remember finding it refreshing. I ordered some on amazon to see if that's the stuff. Kind of random I know, thanks for the video I enjoyed it!

@markfrank0924 2 года назад

Excellent video, just discovered Matcha. As has been mentioned, the ceremonial way in which the Japanese do things pays respect to any process. They are to be admired as a people and as practitioners of sweating the details.

Ro Mama if you knew what you were talking about you would be aware that certain flavors only present themselves at certain temperatures, the same is also very apparent with coffee. As it cools down more subtle notes can be tasted, and when iced this effect is obviously enhanced greatly 😁.

@chrisladouceur4093 5 лет назад

A lot of places tend to refer to the methods as thick or thin matcha instead of their Japanese names. Also, from my understanding, ceremonial grade matcha is typically intended for thick matcha whilst thin matcha can be made with any grade really. To each their own though, I’ve been given the gears before though for “wasting” high grade ceremonial matcha by making it thin. I usually keep 3 matchas around, one lower grade for mixing with food and drinks, a higher grade for thin matcha, and a ceremonial grade that I break out one in awhile for thick or thin. Great video

@PhotoFilmFreak1 8 лет назад

At the tea place I frequent they use the cocktail shaker and it's definitely cooler than a milk frother

I appreciate the jam jar version because in reality tea can be a humble-at-home experience, or it can be an "elevated" commercial experience with special gadgets etc. It's great when a person can make TEA with a minimal amount of EXTRA stuff because some of us just don't have space for shakers etc. Etc.

@kinghazzah 7 лет назад

I tend to be the traditional matcha maker as I do have the whisk and bowl but I must admit that sometimes in the morning when I want my matcha quickly, I have used the little battery whisk and that does make a nice tea! Haven't used the jelly jar or cold myself yet (although I have tried a matcha late at the local tea shop) but in a pinch, a good idea. I love my traditional, but I can see that if you can't get or don't have access to obtaining the traditional Japanese matcha style brew ware (OK so you don't really brew it) then these would be good options for someone just wanting to try it.

@hildywexler1489 7 лет назад

wonderful & very informative..........I will definitely try it cold.

@clarewhite3004 5 лет назад

Thanks! I just got my first matcha order today - plain and chocolate flavor - from Adagio today. It's late April and warm here in Kentucky, so I got out the cocktail shaker. Talk about a bright green!!! I washed out some empty tea tins to keep it fresh. I'm going to get a milk frother for my hot matcha. I think they're cheaper than a lot of the traditional whisks anyway. I've been wanting one for years anyway.

@introgrunt4046 5 лет назад

I’ve found that simply putting it in a shaker, about 4oz of water and some ice, poured over some bright flavored ginger or citrus teas.. lychee slushes is also amazing with matcha. I would do the wisk all the time at a tea shop I worked at but once I tried the shaker, I haven’t used a wisk since.

@ralphix6572 7 лет назад

whisking will put more air into the tea or coffee. This will definately effect the taste of a beverage. Ever heard Bond saying "shaken not stirred". Also wine is also another drink that needs air before serving! Don't shake cold-pressed juices unless you are drinking them with in 30mins or so. Air also oxidates and breaks down vitamins and enzymes.

@MeiLeaf 7 лет назад

Good points!

@misstrue1000 6 лет назад

Please break this down for dummies like myself. Are you saying that shaking makes it less healthy?

@HaiTharImDavid 6 лет назад

@Coylee91 5 лет назад

Although a proper vodka martini should be stirred as shaking makes it cloudy, and people prefer the aesthetics of them clear. And I doubt whether a vodka martini has much in the way of health benefits either way.

@Elementecho 5 лет назад

With martinis, the shaking versus stirring is about the introduction of water to the spirit. Shaking involves ice.

I have a cocktail idea for ice matcha, as I know that in Japan they are used to adding mint to ice brewed gyokuro, it would go with iced matcha, I think a mint liquer or even something aniseedy, like absynth or even gin would work and I would dilute it with sparkling water.
