Three hand-picked single-cultivar matchas from Nishio, Aichi — grown under the same conditions, by the same hands, in the same season.

Same farm. Same 45-day Tana-shading. Hand-picked in early May 2025. The only variable is the cultivar — making this a direct comparison of how genetics alone shapes flavour.

Saemidori (30g) — light, sweet, and vegetal, with an avocado-like creaminess.

Tsuyuhikari (30g) — bold and floral, with concentrated umami.

Okuhikari (30g) — sweet and creamy, with a bright finish and moderate umami.

Suitable for Koicha and Usucha.

For a thick micro-foam: 1:20 (or 1:25) at 80°C. All our matcha is freshly milled by order and stored at 2°C on arrival in Germany.

FAQ

How fresh is this Matcha? Our Matcha is milled in Japan in small batches close to order and stored at 2 °C from the moment it arrives in Germany. We ship from our gallery in Munich.
How should I store Matcha? Unopened: cool, dark and dry — the fridge is ideal. Once opened, keep the tin or pouch tightly closed and away from light, heat and moisture, and enjoy it within a few weeks for peak aroma.
How do I read the best-before date? Japanese producers usually print the best-before date in the Japanese order YY.MM.DD (year.month.day) — a package marked 27.02.05 is best before 5 February 2027.
How do I prepare it? For Usucha: sift about 2 g, add 60–80 ml of water at around 80 °C and whisk in a rapid M motion until a fine foam forms. Product-specific ratios are in the description above.
