Why matcha milling matters
The fineness of the powder affects whether a drink feels smooth or grainy. A good powder combines with water and milk more easily.
Fine milling, careful preparation.
Quality matcha should feel very fine between the fingers. When whisked, it makes a soft foam and does not taste rough or dusty.
Do not judge matcha by one signal alone. Origin, aroma, taste, milling and freshness belong together.
If you are choosing matcha for a menu, test it in the drink you actually serve. That shows how it works with your milk and workflow.
