Samidori Matcha - Yamazakiさん Gokasho Uji

Sourced from the celebrated Yamazaki farm in Gokasho, Uji—a region renowned for its pristine tea cultivation—this Samidori matcha delivers a uniquely vegetal profile reminiscent of fresh asparagus and cucumber, balanced by a juicy, mouth-watering pear sweetness. The aromatic complexity evokes the crisp essence of early summer vegetables, making it an exceptional choice for both ceremonial preparation and culinary applications. Stone-milled to preserve its vibrant character, this matcha comes from a three-time recipient of Japan's prestigious Minister of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries Prize, reflecting decades of dedicated craftsmanship and quality.
