Cultivar:

Tsuyuhikari (露光 / つゆひかり) is a relatively new tea cultivar developed in Shizuoka by crossing Yabukita (薮北) and Shizu 7132 (静7132). Its vibrant colour, natural sweetness and umami makes it a coveted cultivar for high quality shade grown teas (kabuse and gyokuro); it is also an increasingly popular cultivar for matcha.

露 (tsuyu): dew
光 (hikari): light

Recommendations:

1. Sift 2g of matcha into your bowl.
2. Add 10ml of water (65° C) to 2g of matcha; whisk in circles, to create a homogenous paste.

3. Add 50ml of water (65° C) and whisk briskly to create a rich froth. 20 seconds should be enough to create smooth, rich froth.
