Description

Our Premium Matcha is produced in Yame, Fukuoka Prefecture, one of Japan's oldest tea-growing regions renowned for quality shaded green teas.

This matcha creates a satisfying cup with fresh, grassy notes and a pleasant balance of umami and gentle bitterness. Perfect for creating delicious matcha lattes, smoothies, and culinary delights.

Dairy-Free, Sugar-Free, Gluten-Free, GMO-Free, Vegan, and Vegetarian.

Note: This matcha falls under the culinary grade. It's best suited for everyday use in lattes and mixed drinks, where a slightly textured matcha works wonderfully. If you’re looking for a non-ceremonial matcha option that is smoother and sweeter, we recommend Premium Matcha (Superior).

*Please note that the image is for reference purposes only. The actual colour may vary slightly due to differences in the seasonal batch.

More Details

Our Yame Matcha blend is crafted from two traditional Japanese tea cultivars: Okumidori prized for its rich umami and Yabukita known for its classic balanced flavour.

The tea leaves are carefully shaded and nurtured before harvest, following traditional cultivation methods. Our matcha is stone-ground using time-honuored techniques that help preserve the tea's natural qualities.

Steeping Suggestions

Mix 2 heaping teaspoons with your choice of milk, either hot or cold. It is best to use our Electric Milk Frother Stick.

Excellent Matcha

My mother bought me this matcha as an early birthday present. I drunk this both by itself and as a latte using a bamboo whisk. As a latte, it works really well, retaining characteristic matcha steamed flavour and delicious texture. By itself it was flavourful and almost sweet. I would drink this again- it's clear that a lot of attention to the tea was given by the farmer.

Thank you for leaving such a positive review of our Premium Matcha from Yame! We are thrilled to hear that you loved your birthday present. It's great to know that you were able to appreciate the unique flavour profile of this matcha both on its own and as a latte. We're happy to hear that it met your expectations and we appreciate your recognition of the hard work put in by the farmer. It's our top priority to ethically source the best from certain tea farms for the most premium and authentic experience. Thanks again for taking the time to share your love and support in such great detail! We look forward to assisting you with any future purchases. Hope to have the pleasure of serving you again soon.
