Horii Shichimeien

Matcha (own garden) Okunoyama

Sourced from Horii Shichimeien's historic Okunoyama tea garden in Uji, Kyoto—a plot with roots stretching back to the Muromachi period—this matcha showcases the distinctive qualities of the Okunoyama cultivar. Though traditionally prized for gyokuro production, this variety's remarkable visual properties make it exceptional when ground into matcha, yielding a striking deep green hue. The resulting powder delivers a remarkably clean, approachable flavor profile without overwhelming intensity, making it equally suited to ceremonial preparation or everyday enjoyment.
