Crafted exclusively from the premium Okumidori matcha variety, renowned for its naturally delicate sweetness, this matcha delivers a remarkably pure and balanced flavor profile. Grown using the Kabuse shading method, in which the tea bushes are covered before harvest, it achieves a higher concentration of amino acids and a more pronounced umami character. The result is a deep harmony of flavors, complemented by a refreshing vibrant green color and a silky-smooth texture. It is ideal both for refined culinary creations and for elevating your everyday matcha-drinking ritual.

I was perhaps seven years old. The streets of Kyoto were wet with the soft spring rain that only Uji knows. My grandmother sat me down on the wooden step in front of her tea room, my clothes muddy from play. In her hands, she held a small bowl, inside, one of the most precious things I would ever taste: Ceremonial Matcha. “This is not tea for thirst, ” she whispered. “This is tea for listening.” I watched her trembling but skillful hand whisk powder into hot water. Everything grew still. The rain, the birds, even my restless legs. The first sip was warm, velvet, grassy. My grandmother’s gaze drifted outward, not at me but at the rain. That day I learned: good tea does not only grow from the soil, it grows from memory.
