A Bolder Samidori
If you prefer matcha with a stronger umami kick, this is the Samidori for you.
Our new Premium Samidori has a more pronounced savory character than a typical smooth and mellow matcha. It delivers an unmistakable depth of umami while maintaining the creamy texture and clean finish that make Uji matcha so enjoyable.
It is bold enough for experienced matcha drinkers, yet smooth enough to enjoy every day.

Tea Farm (Partner: Yuta Nagatani, 7th-Generation Farmer)
With roots stretching back over 120 years in Ujitawara’s Obukudani mountains—the birthplace of Uji tea—our family’s five fields and on-site mill produce organic, pesticide-free teas certified JAS since 2006. Yuta Nagatani carries on this legacy, using our own steam-intense process to coax out a deep green hue, silky throat-feel, and elegant sweetness in every cup.
Growing up, I’d help my father and grandfather in the fields and factory. I chose to follow in their footsteps because I love tea—the way it smells as it brews in a kyusu, the calm pause those minutes bring. Today, I fine-tune each harvest and refining step to highlight our terroir’s wild-herb aromas and the rare Ujimidori cultivar’s unique character. As more enthusiasts discover us on Instagram, I’m excited to share our centuries-old craft and keep these gardens thriving.
