Crafted with care by the experts at Hokoen, Koushu offers a full-bodied, creamy matcha experience with a gentle balance of flavors. Its slight sweetness and mild, pleasant notes create a smooth and enjoyable cup, free of any tart or bitter undertones. For the best flavor, brew Koushu Matcha with water heated to at least 80°C (176°F).

The name "Koushu" ("晃秀") reflects a meaningful message. "晃" ("kou") signifies the radiant warmth of sunlight, while "秀" ("shu") symbolizes excellence and distinction. Together, they inspire a sense of moving towards light, warmth, and eternal love—a sentiment that perfectly complements the comforting experience of enjoying this tea.
