Flavor Profile: [ "Style: Umami-forward, rich, and expressive", "Finish: Clean, lingering, low astringency" ]
Description: Description This ceremonial matcha is harvested entirely by hand and is typically reserved for select tea masters’ shops in Japan. Cultivated in secluded mountain areas, the tea plants experience extreme temperature fluctuations, shaping its distinctive flavour development. The result is a matcha with intense umami at its core, supported by natural sweetness and a full, rounded mouthfeel. Despite its depth, astringency remains low, allowing the flavour to unfold cleanly and linger without sharpness.
