We sat down with Nicole and asked her a few questions about her morning ritual, see below: 
.
Sorate Matcha
.
What is the first thing you do when you wake up?
The first thing I do in the morning is check in on my pet guinea pigs, Fred and Ethel. They get a special vitamin C treat every morning, so they always greet me with excited squeaks. It's an adorable start to the day that never fails to make me smile.

What actions and rituals do you focus on to keep you grounded?
Tea is definitely the main ritual that keeps me grounded. It is meditative yet energizing at the same time. I also make sure to go for a long walk at least once a day. Fresh air and sunshine are vital to my mental and physical well-being.

Can you list five things you are grateful for in the morning?
1. A roof over my head and food in my belly
2. My amazing husband
3. Supportive family and friends
4. My health
5. Getting to do what I love every day

A good technique to start your day is to read for 5 minutes, write for five minutes and meditate for five minutes. Suggest what would you read and what would you write about?
I would read Every Day a Good Day by Morishita Noriko. It has 15 short chapters with lessons on happiness from Japanese tea culture. My morning writing is usually a bit of a freeform brain dump. It really helps to write down what is on my mind. 

What morning ritual would you like to impart to others?
Tea! Take the time to make matcha or brew a cup of loose leaf tea and enjoy it slowly. It's truly the best way to start the day..

How do you think Sorate could fit into your morning ritual?
Matcha is such an effective mood lifter. Shaking up a bottle of Sorate in the morning makes it easy to start off on the right foot.

MATCHA CULTIVARS

July 24, 2024

Matcha, like champagne, is crafted from specific cultivars, each contributing unique flavors. Sorate offers four cultivars: Yabukita (balanced, vibrant green), Samidori (deep green, mild), Asahi (rare, rich, creamy), and Okumidori (umami, bright green).

Single Cultivar matcha showcases one cultivar's traits, preferred by enthusiasts. Blended Cultivar matcha combines multiple cultivars for a balanced flavor, appealing to a broader audience. At Sorate, our diverse matchas highlight these unique flavors and qualities for a distinctive matcha experience.

disappointed

disappointed after trying this matcha directly after finishing my rockys osada tin. i was excited since this is supposed to be “the spot” to get matcha in nyc so i was expecting it to be good. its not bad its just average and honestly pretty chalky/grainy textured even afer fine sifting and whisking well. and theres an unpleasant bitter taste especially towards the bottom of my drink even after mixing and shaking it around to keep it from separating. i would definitely stick to ippodo and rockys in the future.
