Matcha Sable Cookies
Sables are a staple for cookie fanatics. While traditional Japanese cuisine does not tend to incorporate fat in their dishes, this avant garde cookie marries the best of French and Japanese produce in one bite. The buttery aroma complements well with the strong fragrance of Copper Tea's Cafe Standard matcha in a way that is so enticing, it was even complimented by one of the former Consuls General who came here from Japan.
