Samidori Matcha - Tsujiさん Shirakawa Uji

Sourced from the legendary Tsuji farm in Shirakawa, Uji—Kyoto's most celebrated tea region—this Samidori matcha represents the pinnacle of Japanese craftsmanship, backed by the farm's historic Emperor Award and Minister of Agriculture recognition. The powder delivers a refined sweetness reminiscent of honey, balanced by subtle vegetal notes and a toasted undertone that recalls sunflower seeds, creating a complex flavor profile ideal for both ceremonial preparation and everyday enjoyment. Stone-milled fresh to preserve its vibrant character, this matcha embodies generations of expertise from one of Japan's most decorated producers.
