Single Cultivar Imperial Gokou Batch 001

Our latest Single Cultivar release spotlights Gokou, a highly prized cultivar grown in the revered tea region of Uji. Crafted from 100% first-flush, stone milled tencha and processed and refined by our partner factory in Shizuoka, this is a single-origin matcha crafted for drinkers who love a deep, savory cup. Bright, verdant green in the bowl, Gokou whisks into a smooth, richly vegetal matcha -- think fresh asparagus and garden greens -- with a velvety finish and just a pleasant whisper of bitterness that lingers. It's a characterful, savory-leaning cup that shines whisked into usucha, layered into koicha, or poured behind the counter for guests chasing something with real depth.
