Fresh Matcha Green Tea Gold Blend

Savor a fresh taste from Shiga Prefecture with Shin Matcha Chakin by Maruyasu Tea Co., Ltd. Made from carefully selected leaves, this versatile matcha is rich and smooth enough to enjoy as thick koicha or standard thin usucha. Whisk it in a traditional bowl with a tea whisk, or mix it with milk for a modern matcha latte at home.

While Shiga holds Japan's oldest history in sencha production, its matcha craftsmanship is relatively new, emerging during the Heisei era. The key to its refined quality lies in using premium first flush tencha leaves. Shaded for at least twenty days before picking, the leaves are steamed and dried without rolling, creating a unique covered aroma with a subtly toasted note and minimal bitterness.

This fresh batch arrives in brand new condition with an eight-month shelf life. Once opened, enjoy it promptly, and keep it stored away from high heat, humidity, and strong scents to preserve its delicate flavor profile.
