Matcha Seiun Yamamasa Koyamaen 30g

Seiun

Matcha Seiun offers a rich umami flavour combined with the distinctive covered tea aroma (characteristic of shaded tea leaves). It also features a pleasant fragrance from the young tea leaves (mirume ka), making it a truly enjoyable matcha. We recommend this premium grade for tea ceremonies, especially for preparing Koicha (thick tea), as it surpasses even our Senjin no Mukashi in quality.
