This complex and subtle blend of Saemidori, Yutakamidori and Okumidori cultivars from Mr. Ikeda, certified 10th dan (highest rank) master tea blender (‘Cha-shi’) from Kagoshima city, Kagoshima prefecture is the highest grade of ceremonial, certified organic matcha. It is stone-ground and has an aroma of toasted nuttiness with a hint of fresh-baked bread, a frothy, full-mouth-feel flavour of dark chocolate with notes of coffee with a light astringency and a long, back-of-mouth finish of cacao bitterness.
This matcha is best enjoyed the traditional manner whisked in hot water.
