HOT ! Kyoto Matcha Ceremonial Grade

Direct sourced, fresh ceremonial grade matcha. Well-balanced umami flavor with toasty, nutty notes, achieved by the unique high-temperature firing process. Great matcha should not taste like grass.

Directly sourced from a 3rd generation family farm located in the lush hillsides Wazuka, Kyota, Japan. The clay-rich soil is optimal for cultivating green tea leaves that ultimately become our ceremonial grade matcha.

The Okumidori Cultivar is a remarkable blend of Yabukita and Shizuoka Zairai tea plants. This well-balanced cultivar delivers a delightful combination of umami, a touch of astringency, and a refreshing, elegant aroma.

Tea leaves are plucked once a year in May during peak harvest season. After leaves are picked, they undergo a rigorous process of steaming, drying, sifting, and cutting to prevent oxidation.

The leaves are stone-ground into a fine powder, sealed in airtight bags, and placed inside Dona tea tins. To maintain freshness, store matcha in the refrigerator.

Directions: Scoop 2 grams (1 tsp) of matcha into a tea bowl, add 2.5 ounces of hot water (170F), and vigorously whisk until frothy.
