Samidori Matcha - Sakataさん Hamadai Uji

Sourced from the Hamadai basin in Uji, Kyoto, this Samidori cultivar matcha comes from Sakata, a multiple award-winning producer celebrated for generations of chemical-free farming practices. The powder delivers a light and airy character with a distinctive sweetness reminiscent of air-popped corn, alongside subtle notes of tomato vine greenery and toasted barley. This versatile matcha works beautifully as a ceremonial preparation or culinary ingredient, offering a refined flavour profile that showcases the pristine terroir of its heritage region.
