Midori Matcha, Japanese Ceremonial Grade-A

Our Midori Ceremonial Matcha is a refined, everyday-luxury matcha built from two celebrated Japanese cultivars: Yabukita and Saemidori. The leaves are grown in Shizuoka and Kagoshima, two of Japan's most respected tea regions, where distinct microclimates and careful cultivation give the cup clarity, soft depth, and a clean, composed finish. Unlike steeped green tea, matcha delivers the whole leaf in every cup. That means more antioxidants, more L-theanine, and a richer flavor in every sip. Features: Ceremonial grade Japanese matcha Origin: Shizuoka and Kagoshima Prefectures, Japan Yabukita and Saemidori tea leaf cultivars Shade-grown and stone-mill ground in the traditional method No sweeteners, preservatives, or coloring Tin 30g Lifestyle-Friendly: Vegan, Paleo, Keto Caffeine: Medium Note: Does not include bowl, cup, or whisk pictured Ingredients: ceremonial grade matcha green tea Flavor Profile Natural sweetness leads, followed by a smooth, balanced umami. Saemidori brings the soft sweetness and bright color, while Yabukita adds structure and body. The result is a matcha that whisks up smooth and frothy with a gentle, lingering finish. Easy to drink straight, and sturdy enough to hold its own in a latte. How to Prepare Traditional matcha: Add 1 tsp of matcha to a matcha bowl. Pour about 2 oz of hot water (just below boiling). Whisk vigorously in a "W" motion with a bamboo whisk until frothy and smooth, then add 6 oz more water and whisk to combine. Matcha latte: Whisk 1 tsp of matcha with 2 oz of hot water to form a smooth paste. Add your favorite milk (almond, oat, coconut, or dairy) and sweetener to taste. Whisk until combined. Note: When you first open the tin, a small puff of matcha may escape when the inner lid pops open. That's proof of the air-tight seal. Use the outer lid between uses to maintain freshness.
