A first-harvest ceremonial matcha, a blend of two growers, Saemidori and Yabukita, and comes from the Yame region on the island of Kyushu, more precisely from a family production passed down for eight generations and located at Yame Chuo Tea Garden.
The island of Kyushu, in southern Japan, enjoys ideal climatic conditions, giving its tea a characteristic sweetness. The Saemidori variety, with its sweet, fruity and buttery notes, flourishes particularly well in this region, thanks to the absence of frost in winter.
In the cup, our matcha develops iodized, creamy, fruity notes, a fine astringency and a typically umami finish.
