Matcha-iri
Premium green teas dusted with ceremonial grade matcha from the first harvest. Exceptionally rich in catechins and amino acids, our fully shaded Ikkyu matcha has pronounced umami with a mild sweetness. This special profile makes each of our Matcha-iri blends unique and results in beautifully vibrant, rich green tones in the cup.
Our Recommendations
Gyokuro
Consisting of young leaves from the first harvest (ichibancha), gyokuro is one of the most prestigious green teas from Japan. Fully shaded for up to 3 weeks, rich in amino acids, with a full-bodied, sweet umami
Karigane Kukicha
This green tea is made predominantly from the stems of sencha and gyokuro and is therefore very mild and low in caffeine, with lots of umami/amino acids and a light sweetness
Fukamushi
Sencha which has been deep-steamed for up to 120 seconds. Results in an intense cup colour and a particularly strong, full body
Bancha
A variety of green tea traditionally made from the coarser leaves of later harvests. Mild and alkaline with a certain minerality. A good evening tea; low in caffeine
