Uji Superior Matcha - Yabukita

Superior Ceremonial Matcha – Yabukita (30g Tin)

Single Cultivar | First Harvest | Shade-Grown | Stone-Milled

Bright, refreshing, and layered with nuance — Yabukita is our Superior Ceremonial matcha, crafted by a Level 10 Japanese Tea Master from first flush leaves grown in Uji. This classic cultivar is celebrated for its vibrant green color and expressive, clean flavor profile, making it a perfect matcha for those who appreciate both clarity and depth.

With every sip, Yabukita reveals a vivid grassy character reminiscent of fresh-cut lawn and young spring peas, rounded by a subtle astringency that melts into sweetness at the finish. The result is a balanced, deeply satisfying Usucha that awakens and soothes at once.

About Yabukita Cultivar:

Yabukita is the most widely cultivated tea plant in Japan — but rarely expressed like this. When grown under deep shade and crafted by a master, its refreshing, vegetal character transforms into a vibrant matcha experience that’s as traditional as it is unforgettable.

This is refined daily matcha — classic, comforting, and quietly complex.
