Ashu's Matcha Organic Gokou (30g)

"I'm in a Japanese home goods store, and there's some matcha there. And I remarked to my partner, 'oh, maybe this is the matcha I should get maybe, like, my hunt for matcha is done.' This woman overhears me. She goes, sorry, I couldn't help but overhear you, I have a matcha company... She goes to her car, she comes back- shout out to Ashu Matcha. This is primo shit, honey. She's like 'we're based out of Malibu.' I go 'I'm listening.' She gives me this tin of matcha, [I] used it yesterday, and I mean this is expensive stuff too, God bless her. She gave me the fanciest kind, like...we're looking at like 100 bucks for a little tin. I made it up- so smooth, I loved it.

I have my whisk...I've got my strainer. That's the thing that really changes the game, really. I have the little thing that scoops one gram so I do three grams of matcha for my cup, and I have my tea bowl that I literally brought back from Kyoto years ago."
