Wakaki-shiro

One of the better budget latte matchas I've stocked — customers keep asking for it by name.

My daily latte matcha — nutty and mellow with oat milk. Ippodo officially markets this one for lattes and desserts.

Better than I expected for the price — nutty finish comes through nicely over milk.

Noticeably astringent straight, exactly as advertised — much better in milk.

Great value baking matcha too — used it in a batch of matcha cookies with good color retention.

Does the job in a latte but I wouldn't drink this one straight twice.

Rough straight, quite astringent by the finish. Definitely a milk matcha.

Solid everyday oat milk matcha, doesn't get lost like some cheaper culinary grades do.
