Born from the singular volcanic soils of Kagoshima, this matcha is crafted from Yutakamidori tea leaves, grown in the shade, hand-harvested and meticulously worked to unveil their full expressive depth.
Among Japan’s most esteemed cultivars, often described as a “natural gyokuro” for its velvety texture and vivid brilliance, Yutakamidori reveals an intense umami and a rare aromatic resonance, carried by a deep, luxuriant green. In the cup, delicate nuances of dried fruits unfold, intertwined with the refined floral softness characteristic of shade-grown teas.
At once poised and expressive, this matcha captures with precision the distinctive soul of southern Japan’s terroirs.
Preparation: Place about 1.5 g of Matcha tea in a bowl, then pour in 4 cl of hot water (70°C). Swiftly whip the tea for 30 seconds with a bamboo whisk, or chasen, then enjoy.
