“Mr. TEACHER” is an ice cream series produced by a Japanese tea store. In this day and age when bottled tea is readily available at a low price, fewer people know the taste of authentic Japanese tea brewed from tea leaves in a teapot. Seeing the situation, Ajiman Corporation was concerned that people in near future would drink a bottle tea and think that is the real flavor of Japanese tea. One of the interesting features of the Japanese tea is that even the same variety of tea leaves can vary in taste and aroma depending on where they are grown as well as cultivation and processing methods. Just like human, each tea has its own charm and “Mr. TEACHER” was created with the hope of conveying the greatness of the Japanese tea.
Using abundant high quality matcha from Uji in Kyoto, the matcha ice cream comes in four types with different intensity levels. The “bitter” type for adults that lets you savor the bitter taste and aroma unique to matcha; the mildly sweet “medium” type with strong matcha flavor; the “mild” type with a balanced matcha flavor and sweetness; and the “sweet” type suited for kids. There are also hojicha and genmaicha tea flavors. The scent that drifts up through the nose, the flavor that spreads throughout your mouth and the lingering aftertaste. This ice cream series is a true delight that lets you savor up the authentic Japanese tea.
