I’m so jealous of your foam. This is my latest foam ‘achievement’!
Your day in matcha
You’re most welcome anytime!
You’ll do it easily with practice!
Yes, koicha has to be very thick. You have to wait for it crawling down

Your photos are so elegant. Are they from a tea ceremony?
This is my latest “foam” achievement. I used 160° water and a new matcha, O-cha Kaoru Supreme organic Matcha. A little more bitter than my favorites, but somehow the bitterness is not as unpleasant for me as the bitterness of sencha.

That’s good to know. If I like matcha lattes I might order some cooking matcha. The price is so reasonable. I just checked o-cha and their cooking matcha is $27 for 300 grams. At that price, a tenth of the cost of drinking matcha, a tablespoon per latte is affordable.
I’m seeing a slight improvement in my foam achievement. Today’s matcha is Yamenohana Matcha from Leafy Green. It’s a moderately priced matcha at $12 for 20 grams. I’m not commenting on the flavor profile because I’m overly sensitive to bitterness in tea, so not a good judge of the balance of flavors. I’ll probably need to increase my matcha budget.
