Tamahime no Shiro

A vivid green colour and a delicate, inviting aroma. This is Tamahime no Shiro. A shade-grown matcha with a vivid green colour, a delicate aroma and a beautifully balanced interplay of bitterness and sweetness. Its full, rounded taste shines in a lighter tea as well as in a luxurious matcha latte. A matcha for the more discerning home preparation, appreciated by anyone looking for more than an ordinary cup. It is distinguished by a beautifully balanced interplay of bitterness and sweetness and a pleasantly full, rounded taste. It shines in a lighter, more delicate tea (usucha) as well as in a truly luxurious matcha latte. The leaves mature in the shade, beneath a special cover that limits sunlight and helps preserve their rich flavour and freshness. After harvest they are dried gently, without friction, and only the finest, highest-quality parts of the leaf are selected for the final matcha. The result is a matcha of rare balance.
