This high-quality, carefully stone-ground, ceremonial matcha from the Ujitawara region in Kyoto is a first flush tea picked in early June. It is a rare, single cultivar, Tenmyou, grown in a single estate tea field at 250 m altitude.
As with most matcha teas made from this cultivar, this matcha has a beautiful deep green colour. It has chocolate, malty aroma, cream, rich and balanced flavour with grassy notes ending with a touch of bitterness and an airy, smooth finish.
This matcha is best enjoyed the traditional manner whisked in hot water.
