Description 2025 harvest A precious and wonderful gem, organic matcha KEIA is a ceremonial first-flush, stone-milled delicacy. Made exclusively from Tsuyuhikari cultivar, KEIA is s mooth, round and fragrant with high levels of umami and no bitterness, as well as a beautiful emerald color. Tsuyuhikari tea leaves bud earlier than Yabukita and are renowned for its high umami and caffeine contents, with a fresh and floral aroma, with notes of pine. Plucked at the end of May in Yamaguchi san's fields, in Satsuma, northern Kagoshima prefecture, KEIA matcha is made in low quantities. An extremely rare matcha that will energize you with its high levels of caffeine, we recommend enjoying it straight, either in usucha or koicha form. Yamaguchi san suggests using plant-based milk if you prefer to mix it. Show more
