This was my first Marukyu & I really enjoyed it. At 3-4g with 150ml of oat milk, it had a subtle nutty flavour. Increase the matcha to 5-6g with 130ml of plant-based milk, the bitterness comes out, though still not bad. I think 4 is the magic number, with 4g of matcha + 140ml of oat milk—you’ll get the best-tasting matcha latte with this variant. Will definitely consider repurchasing this!
