Preparation & use

Producer’s descriptionGeneral maker guidance

Morihan’s general FAQ explains that matcha disperses in water rather than dissolving and settles with time; mix it well before drinking. This is maker-wide handling guidance, not a product-specific dose, water temperature or usucha/koicha recipe.

Maker-level context, not a recipe specific to this product.
