Matcha Cultivars

🧪 Our Signature Blend: Precision Meets Tradition
Our core ceremonial-grade matcha is a custom blend of five carefully selected cultivars grown in the Uji region of Kyoto—renowned for producing the finest matcha in Japan. Here's what goes into the blend:
🌿 Yabukita
The most widely grown cultivar in Japan. Known for its clean, balanced flavor and bright aroma. It forms the backbone of the blend.
🌿 Okumidori
Adds a luxurious creaminess and vivid green hue, enhancing both the mouthfeel and visual appeal.
🌿 Samidori
A favorite in high-end ceremonial matcha. It deepens the umami character and contributes to a refined, lingering taste.
🌿 Saemidori
Soft and smooth on the palate, this cultivar adds a gentle sweetness and smooth finish.
🌿 Tsuyuhikari
Known for its fresh, floral aroma and delicate vibrancy. It rounds out the blend with a light, refreshing lift.

Why We Blend
Unlike single-cultivar matcha (which can vary drastically between harvests), blending allows us to create a consistently exceptional experience—season after season. It’s the same principle used by Japan’s top tea masters: combine cultivars to highlight their strengths, balance their weaknesses, and ensure the perfect cup every time.
