Research notes
This is the most expensive of the three organic regional matchas by a wide margin (¥8,100 vs ¥2,916 Uji and ¥1,944 Kagoshima), and the page markets it as the 'finest peak' (最高峰) organic matcha, suggesting a higher grade/more limited harvest than the other two organic SKUs despite sharing the same 30g can size. No specific cultivar, harvest timing, or customer reviews disclosed.
