Hokoen Matcha Unryu, also known as “Cloud Dragon,” is a ceremonial-grade matcha sourced from Kyoto Prefecture, Japan. It is ideal for preparing usucha (thin tea) and is popular among matcha beginners due to its smooth taste and minimal bitterness. The name “Unryu” symbolizes luck and prosperity, drawing from the imagery of a dragon ascending through clouds. This matcha is finely powdered and requires careful preparation, including whisking with water at 80°C to create a frothy, bright green tea.
