- About Our Signature Range
No.003 is our most lavish and umami packed blend featuring only hand-picked Okumidori and Saemidori from our farmers in Wazuka who have been growing teas since the 18th century. Due to intense labour and skill required hand-picked matcha is both rare and valuable. The richness and the exquisite layers of flavour is outstanding. Indulge yourself in this decadent tradition of Uji matcha.
We created this 50g value pack for our loyal daily matcha drinkers who enjoy our signature range. It's an economical option perfect for regular consumption. However, if you don't drink matcha frequently, we recommend choosing a smaller size to preserve its freshness. There’s nothing quite like the smell of freshly opened matcha!
MATSU matcha No.001-003 are exclusive blends created in collaboration with an esteemed Japanese tea sommelier. Each blend is meticulously crafted to bring out the unique flavour profiles specific to the renowned matcha regions Kyoto and Kirishima. A perfect go-to for both usucha (straight matcha, akin to drip coffee) and lattes.
