✅ Regions of Japan – Shizuoka Prefecture – A wealth of flavor and tradition

✅ Shizuoka Tea: The pinnacle of Japanese green tea

✅ Shizuoka is the true tea capital of Japan, accounting for approximately 40% of the country's production. Situated at the foot of Mount Fuji, the region is distinguished by its rich volcanic soil, crystal-clear waters, and picturesque plantations. A variety of climatic conditions, including morning mists and temperature fluctuations, contribute to the unique flavors of teas such as sencha, tencha, and hojicha. The history of tea in Shizuoka dates back to 1241, making it a place of exceptional tradition.

✅ Regions of Japan – Kyoto Prefecture – A wealth of flavor and tradition

✅ Tea Uji: The Essence of Kyoto

✅ Uji tea, known as Kyoto tea, comes from the picturesque village of Wazuka. It is here that the highest quality matcha and gyokuro are produced. Due to its proximity to Kyoto, this region often supplied tea to the imperial court from as early as the 13th century. Uji teas are distinguished by their rich umami and velvety texture, making teas from this region a symbol of luxury and prestige.

✅ Matcha Premium Ceremonial – Powdered Japanese Green Tea

✅ Used for centuries in traditional tea ceremonies in Japan, this is the highest quality matcha available on the market.

✅ First Harvest Matcha

This variety is produced from the first spring harvest (first flush). The leaves are shaded before harvesting, minimizing their exposure to sunlight and increasing chlorophyll content, giving the powder an intense green color.

✅ Delicate Texture and Smooth Taste

Before grinding, the stems and veins are removed, giving ceremonial matcha a delicate texture and a naturally sweet flavor. It is thicker than other types of matcha, foams beautifully, and offers a smooth flavor profile with a slight hint of sweetness, ideal for tea ceremonies.

✅ Ceremonial Consumption

Ceremonial matcha is recommended to be drunk only with water to fully appreciate its authentic, rich flavor and exceptional quality. However, you can also add milk or other ingredients to create delicious drinks, such as matcha lattes, which are becoming increasingly popular.

✅ Why First Flush Matcha is the Best ✅

✅ During winter, tea buds hibernate, allowing them to accumulate valuable nutrients before the spring harvest. This makes first-harvest matcha rich in flavor and intense in its effects. The leaves, growing slowly in cool conditions, create a full-bodied flavor and aroma that true connoisseurs will appreciate.

L-theanine, a key amino acid that gives matcha its characteristic umami flavor, is present in significantly higher amounts in the first harvest, three times higher than in tea from the second harvest. In later harvests, such as the third and fourth, L-theanine levels are significantly lower, resulting in a less intense flavor and nutritional value.

✅ High-quality matcha has an intense, full-bodied flavor with minimal bitterness, requiring no added sugar. To fully enjoy its flavor and health benefits, it's best to choose matcha from the first harvest, which is considered truly ceremonial.

✅ How to recognize good matcha✅

✅ Good matcha is recognized primarily by its color. An intense green hue indicates high chlorophyll content and young leaves growing higher on the plant, where they have more access to light. A yellowish hue suggests older leaves or leaves from lower parts of the plant, which translates to lower quality.

✅ In this auction we are offering ceremonial matcha, marked in green in the box below.

✅ The second important indicator of matcha quality is its consistency. The silkier and finer the powder, the higher the quality. This can be easily checked by rubbing the matcha on a white piece of paper.

✅ The attached photo shows a clear difference between everyday matcha (left) and ceremonial matcha (right). Ceremonial matcha produces a smooth, intensely green, and continuous line, indicating a very fine grind. Daily matcha, on the other hand, has a more lumpy texture and a lighter, less saturated color, making the line less distinct and broken when ground.

✅ Both types of matcha from our offer are ground on traditional stone mills, but ceremonial matcha is ground longer, which translates into its higher quality and silky consistency.

✅ The presence of bitter notes doesn't always indicate low-quality matcha , as their intensity depends on the growing region and cultivation techniques. However, matcha with an intense bitterness or a fishy aftertaste indicates lower quality and a late harvest.

✅ Classification terms

Terms like "everyday matcha," "traditional," "premium," or "luxury" are created for marketing purposes and don't reflect actual quality. The value of matcha depends on the characteristics mentioned above, which are more reliable.

✅ Matcha is not only a delicious tea, but also a source of valuable nutrients, such as antioxidants and L-theanine, which support concentration, relaxation, and detoxification. ✅
