Organic Matcha Asanoka

A precious ceremonial infusion

A rare matcha, produced as a single varietal to honour the distinctive essence of this cultivar. This unconventional strategy, in contrast to the typical preference for blended teas, creates the opportunity to savour the unblended aromatic character of one tea plant.

This ceremonial grade matcha reveals an aromatic spectrum brimming with brightness and subtlety. Its vegetal characteristics emerge across a smooth, refined texture.

Matcha knowledge

During the 12th century, Buddhist monk Eisai returned from China carrying tea seeds, which were subsequently cultivated across various regions of Japan. In those days, the practice involved reducing tea into an exceptionally fine powder and whisking it within a bowl. Originally the domain of nobility, this custom gradually became more widespread until, via the Cha No Yu ceremony, matcha eventually came to embody the essence of Japanese Zen philosophy and aesthetic expression.
