Experience the exquisite blend of Matcha crafted from the inaugural harvest of five distinct Japanese tea varieties: Okumidori, Saemidori, Tsuyuhikari, Okuyutaka, and Yabukita. Harvested leaves undergo meticulous steaming, drying, and blending processes before being finely ground into powder using traditional "Usu" or stone mills. The resulting Matcha boasts a delightful flavor profile with nutty undertones reminiscent of sesame, coupled with a sweet and intricately complex taste. Elevate your Matcha experience with this exceptional blend, meticulously produced in the Yame region of Fukuoka prefecture by a master artisan.

Matcha is a Japanese powdered tea that has been around for the past 1000 years. It is prepared with 85C water and then whipped up with a bamboo whisk. It produces a slightly foamy, vibrant green drink with a rich vegetal, slightly sweet taste. Because the leaves are not removed from the cup as in a traditional tea steeping method, but rather consumed, matcha tea contains the highest level of anti-oxidants, vitamins and caffeine. This premium grade matcha was ground and vacuum sealed in Japan for The Naked Leaf.
