How to Use Ramosa Matcha

Your Matcha Ritual

Ramosa matcha is ceremonial grade. Grown slowly, shade-harvested, and stone-ground to preserve its vibrant colour and full-bodied flavour. Each cup is a moment of calm, crafted with intention. Here's how to prepare it properly and unlock the full depth of your matcha experience.

What You'll Need

  • 3g of Ramosa ceremonial matcha
  • 70–80ml of hot water (not boiling — around 75–80°C)
  • A matcha bowl (chawan) or wide mug
  • A bamboo whisk (chasen) or milk frother

Step-by-Step

  1. Sift your matcha into the bowl to remove any clumps. This ensures a smooth, lump-free suspension.
  2. Add water — pour 70–80ml of water heated to around 75–80°C. Avoid boiling water, which can make matcha bitter and diminish its delicate notes.
  3. Whisk in a brisk W or M motion for 20–30 seconds until a smooth, frothy layer forms on top. The whisking aerates the matcha and creates the signature creamy texture.
  4. Sip and savour. No sweetener needed — ceremonial matcha has a natural umami sweetness and subtle vegetal complexity that deepens with each sip.

Matcha Latte

For a latte, whisk your matcha with just 30ml of hot water first to form a concentrate, then top with 150ml of steamed oat, almond, or dairy milk. The milk softens the intensity while preserving the matcha's earthy character.

Iced Matcha

Whisk matcha with 30ml of hot water, then pour over a glass packed with ice. Add cold milk or water to taste for a refreshing, energising drink perfect for warmer days.

Tips for the Best Cup

  • Store your matcha in a cool, dark place and use within 4–6 weeks of opening to maintain freshness and potency.
  • Use filtered water if possible for a cleaner flavour and to avoid chlorine interference.
  • The greener and more vibrant the colour, the fresher the matcha. Dull or yellowish matcha has lost its vitality.
  • Invest in a quality whisk, it makes a noticeable difference in texture and ease of preparation.
  • Matcha pairs beautifully with quiet moments: morning meditation, afternoon reflection, or an evening wind-down ritual.
