Crafted with deep respect for tradition, this rare blend by Hiroaki Hasegawa combines two of Uji’s most esteemed cultivars: the luxurious Asahi, known for its rich umami and natural sweetness, and the elegant Samidori, prized for its smooth texture and vibrant green color.
Handpicked only once a year during the early spring harvest, this matcha is milled in small batches to preserve its delicate flavor and superior quality. Expect a deep, creamy umami with a lingering sweetness, subtle floral notes, and almost zero bitterness.
Whether enjoyed as koicha (thick tea) or usucha (thin tea), this blend offers a ceremonial-grade experience—refined, complex, and unforgettable.
