Matcha Crew No. 60 Premium Matcha is an organic Yabukita matcha from Kagoshima, Japan, developed for drinks made with milk. Its balanced profile combines a nutty flavor, gentle bitterness, and medium creaminess. The matcha has enough character to remain present in hot or iced lattes rather than being masked by the milk.
Why does No. 60 work well in matcha lattes?
No. 60 is intended as an everyday matcha for people who mainly drink matcha with milk. Its robust character and lightly bitter edge balance the creaminess of a latte, while the nutty flavor gives the drink a clear matcha profile. It can also be used in iced matcha, smoothies, and sweetened drinks.

Where is this organic Yabukita matcha grown?
The tea comes from organic tea farms in Kagoshima, Japan. The cultivar is Yabukita, one of the specific product details that distinguishes No. 60 from matcha blends that do not identify a cultivar. Its stated flavor profile is balanced rather than sharply bitter, with medium creaminess and a nutty character suited to milk-based drinks.
How should Matcha Crew No. 60 be prepared with milk?
For a matcha latte, sift 2g of No. 60 into a bowl or cup. Add 40ml of water at approximately 75–80°C, then whisk until the mixture is smooth and lightly foamy. Finish with 150–200ml of hot or iced milk.
This ratio gives the matcha a defined role in the finished drink while following the preparation quantities provided for No. 60. The same matcha can be used for an iced latte by choosing iced milk, or added to smoothies and other sweetened drinks. Buyers seeking a balanced, organic Kagoshima matcha primarily for milk-based recipes will find No. 60 aligned with that use.
