Mizuba Tea Yama Matcha Green Tea - 30 grams
Mizuba Tea Yama Matcha Green tea is a masterpiece from Japan's Southern Alps. Yama matcha exemplifies clarity and centuries of history. The Honyama region produces teas renowned for an impeccable balance of sweetness and clean umami, with a fresh, airy, slightly floral aroma evocative of its mountainous terroir.
Best for traditional whisked tea (usucha).
Honyama-cha is renowned for its transparent, elegant taste and a distinctive "mountain aroma" (yama no kaori) that results from the region's high elevation, mineral-rich soil, and natural fog.
Using a time-honored technique called gogumi, this matcha is a blend of first-harvest Okumidori, Saemidori, Inaguchi, and Asahikari cultivars and dances across the palate.
The Honyama region is famed for cedar groves, mineral-rich soil, and clear rivers. The natural shading of the dense mountain fog elicits tea with soft, smooth flavors, bright color, and a clear aroma that reminds you of the mountains. The tea has been highly regarded for centuries, specifically by shoguns!
For generations, Honyama tea was an offering to the shogunate. Savor this special matcha worthy of a dignified gift.
Mizuba Matcha comes directly from the farms in Japan and is processed in the traditional stone grinding manner.
Matcha is a concentrated source of:
- Chlorophyll
- Amino acids - Especially L-theanine
- Catechins: a category of antioxidants
Unlike traditional steeping, where a tea drinker receives only some of the tea's nutrients in the water, a Matcha drinker consumes the entire Camellia sinensis (tea) leaf in its powdered state–thereby receiving 100% of its nutritional value! Drink matcha because it tastes great - but also enjoy the bonus of matcha's bountiful benefits!
