What Is Yomo no Kaori Matcha?

Yomo no Kaori (四方の薫) is one of the matcha products specifically named by Yamamasa Koyamaen.

The producer lists Yomo-no-kaori alongside Samidori, Matsukaze and Maki-no-shiro in its category of Matcha Suitable for Drinks & Foods. It is positioned separately from dedicated products in the Matcha for Cooking category.

This distinction is important for customers choosing matcha based on intended use.

Yomo no Kaori is not simply a culinary powder designed primarily for baking. Instead, it is a versatile matcha that can be used for drinking while also providing flexibility for drinks and selected food applications.

Yomo no Kaori for Traditional Usucha

Although Yomo no Kaori is versatile enough for modern drinks, it can also be enjoyed as usucha, or traditional thin tea.

Suggested Preparation

• Matcha: 1.5–2g
• Water: 60–70ml
• Water Temperature: approximately 70–80°C / 158–176°F

How to Prepare

1. Warm your matcha bowl and bamboo whisk.
2. Sift 1.5–2g of Yomo no Kaori into the bowl.
3. Add approximately 60–70ml of warm water.
4. Whisk briskly using a W-shaped motion.
5. Continue until the matcha becomes smooth and lightly foamy.
6. Enjoy immediately.

Preparing Yomo no Kaori with water allows you to experience its natural green tea character before exploring milk-based drinks.

Yomo no Kaori Matcha Latte

One of the easiest ways to enjoy Yomo no Kaori is as a matcha latte.

The addition of milk creates a creamy texture while allowing the characteristic matcha flavor to remain noticeable.

Classic Matcha Latte

Ingredients:

• 3g Yomo no Kaori
• 40–50ml warm water
• 150–180ml milk
• Sweetener, optional
• Ice, optional

Preparation

1. Sift 3g of matcha into a bowl.
2. Add 40–50ml warm water.
3. Whisk until smooth.
4. Add steamed milk for a hot latte or cold milk and ice for an iced latte.
5. Add sweetener if desired.
6. Serve immediately.

For a more traditional matcha experience, reduce or omit sweetener.

Iced Matcha Latte

Yomo no Kaori also works well for refreshing iced matcha drinks.

Suggested Recipe

• 3g Yomo no Kaori
• 40–50ml warm water
• 150ml cold milk
• Ice
• Sweetener, optional

Whisk the matcha with warm water before adding it to the milk.

Yomo no Kaori for Cafés

The 150g can makes Yomo no Kaori particularly practical for cafés and frequent matcha drinkers.

Yamamasa Koyamaen states that its matcha products are used by home users, Japanese and Western confectionery shops, hotels, restaurants, cafés and food manufacturers. The company also provides recommendations for matcha suitable for different applications.

Yomo no Kaori can be incorporated into:

• Matcha lattes
• Iced matcha
• Matcha lemonades
• Matcha soda
• Matcha smoothies
• Matcha frappes
• Matcha cream drinks
• Matcha desserts
• Matcha ice cream
• Matcha cream
• Matcha pastries

Its versatility makes it particularly useful when one matcha needs to work across multiple beverage and food applications.

Yomo no Kaori for Desserts

Yomo no Kaori is officially listed by Yamamasa Koyamaen among matcha suitable for drinks and foods, making it possible to explore selected culinary applications as well.

Try using it in:

Matcha Ice Cream

Add Yomo no Kaori to an ice cream base for a recognizable Japanese green tea flavor.

Matcha Cream

Use it in whipped cream, pastry cream or other dessert fillings.

Matcha Affogato

Prepare a concentrated matcha mixture and pour it over vanilla ice cream for a simple Japanese-inspired dessert.

Matcha Cheesecake

Add sifted matcha to the cheesecake mixture for a vibrant green tea flavor.

Matcha Cookies

Yomo no Kaori can also be incorporated into cookie and baked dessert recipes.

For large-scale commercial baking where the primary objective is high-volume culinary processing, Yamamasa Koyamaen offers a separate Matcha for Cooking range.

Is Yomo no Kaori Culinary Grade Matcha?

Yomo no Kaori can be used for selected culinary applications, but “culinary grade” is not the most accurate primary classification.

Yamamasa Koyamaen officially separates its products into:

Matcha Suitable for Drinks & Foods

• Yomo-no-kaori
• Samidori
• Matsukaze
• Maki-no-shiro

Matcha for Cooking

• Special A
• Special B
• Number 1
• Number 2
• Number 3

Therefore, Yomo no Kaori is better described as:

Premium Japanese Matcha for Drinks & Food Applications

rather than simply Culinary Grade Matcha.

Is Yomo no Kaori Ceremonial Grade?

“Ceremonial grade” is commonly used by English-speaking retailers to describe high-quality matcha intended for drinking, but it is not a standardized Japanese grading system.

Yamamasa Koyamaen uses its own product categories and tea names rather than relying on a simple ceremonial-versus-culinary grading system.

For Kisshomori, Yomo no Kaori is best positioned as:

Premium Uji Japanese Matcha for Drinks & Food Applications

Why Choose the 150g Can?

The 150g can provides a useful middle ground between a small 30g can and larger 300g formats.

Using approximately 2g per serving: 150g ÷ 2g = approximately 75 servings

At 3g per matcha latte: 150g ÷ 3g = approximately 50 drinks

At 4g per stronger latte: 150g ÷ 4g = approximately 37 drinks

This makes the 150g can particularly suitable for:

• Frequent home users
• Matcha enthusiasts
• Small cafés
• Restaurants
• Matcha latte drinkers
• Customers who want more than a 30g can
• Customers who do not need a 300g format

How Many Servings Are in Yomo no Kaori 150g?

The number of servings depends on how much matcha you use.

Traditional Usucha

At 2g: Approximately 75 servings

Matcha Latte

At 3g: Approximately 50 drinks

At 4g: Approximately 37 drinks

These figures are estimates based on preparation dosage rather than an official serving count.

Who Should Choose Yomo no Kaori 150g?

Yamamasa Koyamaen Yomo no Kaori 150g is particularly suitable for:

• Regular matcha drinkers
• Matcha latte enthusiasts
• Home users
• Japanese tea enthusiasts
• Small cafés
• Restaurants
• Matcha dessert makers
• Customers looking for versatile Uji matcha
• Customers who want more than a 30g can
• Customers who find 300g too large

If you want one matcha that can move easily between traditional tea, lattes, iced drinks and selected desserts, Yomo no Kaori 150g is a practical choice.

How to Store Yomo no Kaori Matcha

Matcha is sensitive to air, moisture, heat, light and strong odors.

For the best possible freshness:

• Keep the can tightly sealed after every use.
• Store in a cool, dry place.
• Protect the matcha from direct sunlight.
• Avoid heat and humidity.
• Use clean and dry utensils.
• Minimize exposure to air.
• Keep away from strongly scented foods.

Yamamasa Koyamaen specifically recommends choosing the package size according to consumption frequency because storing large quantities for too long after opening can cause quality deterioration.

The 150g size therefore works best for customers who consume matcha regularly rather than occasionally.
