$40.00

Premium Artisan 1st Flush Ceremonial Grade-A Organic Matcha from the island of Kyushu, in the south of Japan. Picked during the first harvest of the year, this matcha is a beautiful blend of yabukita and yutaka midori cultivars. Perfectly balanced, offering strong umami, fresh fragrance and gentle astringency, typical of the tradition. The finest Matcha that we have ever tasted.

Transformation : Beyond Organic. Vibrant. Ethical farming. Soulfully produced.

Elemental Wisdom : Uplifting. Energizing. Awakening. Matcha is related to Yang Wood element, encouraging movement, presence, focus and assertive power.

Brewing guide:

Sift 1-2 chashaku (matcha spoons) of matcha through a sieve for a creamier mousse and to prevent lumps. Warm your chawan (bowl) with hot water, empty and wipe it dry. Add your sifted matcha into the bowl. Add 70ml of water (75°C) onto the tea. Whisk with energy with a chasen (bamboo whisk). Start beneath the surface. As a mousse starts to form, gradually raise your whisking towards the central surface. Every steps should be done mindfully, like a dance. Allow yourself time to sit still and simply breath before sipping your matcha. Enjoy.
