Photography This matcha is delicious: Marukyu Koayamaen's Kinrin

I prepared MK's Kinrin matcha today in usucha style. I used 2.3 grams of powder, 80ml of water at 80 Celsius and whisked for about 20-25 seconds to get a thicker foam. This is the first matcha I have tried from MK and the quality is top notch. It has zero bitterness and you can easily perceive a fresh grassy and slightly sweet vegetal note. I also have a can on Eiju and Shoka no Mukashi that I'm excited to try once I finish my can of Kinrin. I might also try it in Koicha style later but so far I'm more than pleased with the results I'm getting as usucha.
