About the print with the rabbit and frog: Chōjū-jinbutsu-giga, literally "Animal Caricatures", is a famous set of four picture scrolls belonging to Kozan-ji temple in Kyoto. These are playful images that we rarely see and this tea farm can use these images because the temple loves their tea.

How to enjoy:
1. Take a spoon full of matcha powder and place it in the bowl.
2. Pour 80°c - 70°c water over the matcha. Boiling water will ruin the matcha so make sure the water has cooled.
3. Hold the bowl firmly with one hand and whisk vigorously with the other for about 15 seconds, making an "M" or "W" shape movement.
4. When small foam appears on the surface, the matcha is ready

Storage: Please store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight (Both before and after opening). It is best to consume it soon after opening. Otherwise, you could put it in a ziplock bag and store in the freezer.
