Preparation & use

Retailer’s description

The US distributor shortens the name to Tenka; its product photo reads 天下の昔 and 40 g. This supports regional identity reconciliation, not an assumption that every regional batch has identical cultivar composition.

Retailer’s description

For the US 40 g Tenka product, the distributor’s koicha recipe uses 3–4 g matcha with 40 ml water at 80°C, kneaded slowly. Its usucha recipe uses 2 g and 50 ml of 80°C water after making a paste.
