This December, I have been enjoying a Japanese green tea advent calendar. This year, I skipped the usual mastodon thread, and went straight for the big wrap-up blog post.

Day 24: Washimine Ceremonial Matcha Tea
This was a very deep, rich matcha, with some hints of fruitiness in the aroma but it hits you with quite a bitter first impression, followed by a smooth, sweet finish.

Day 22: Gokou Matcha Koiai
This one seemed to turn out quite thin and I really struggled to whisk it up. Not sure if I just didn't manage to get enough out of the satchel (I could make a whole series of posts about my thoughts on packaging), used too much water, or if it was down to the tea. Unfortunately, this was also the day I forgot to take a pic of the powder, so there's less to go on.

Day 21: Chanoka Yabukita Matcha
A lovely deep flavour, with something of a toasty (or roasted) profile to it that I've not encountered before in matcha but really worked along with the other notes.

Day 20: Wazuka Tea Nakai Superior
This one struck me as foresty, with a fresh, leafy aroma but a deep, humusy flavour.

Day 18: Asamiya Sayamamidori Matcha
This one has a lot of different flavours going on at once, with the bitter, sweet and fruity all coexisting. None of them overshadowing or neutralising each other, each one enjoyable.

Day 17: Premium Matcha Chiran Green Tea
Citrusy fragrance, but not a super standout flavour. I was a bit rushed on this one and didn't sift it, which probably didn't help it as it was pretty lumpy out of the satchel.
