Extra Super Ceremonial Matcha – Gekkou Edition (30g Tin)
Premium Blend | First Harvest | Shade-Grown | Small-Batch | Stone-Milled
Deeply earthy, rich, and effortlessly smooth — Gekkou is our Extra Super Ceremonial matcha for those who crave grounded intensity and savory warmth in every sip. This small-batch blend brings together the umami-dense elegance of Samidori, the nuttiness of Okumidori, and the velvet richness of Gokou, masterfully blended for generations on the same Uji farm.
Unlike our single-cultivar offerings, Gekkou reflects the art of composition. It’s a deeply flavorful, creamy matcha that shines in traditional usucha and is frankly too good to indulge in lattes. Grown under shade for over 25+ days and stone-milled in small batches, this ceremonial-grade matcha is as soulful as it is satisfying.

About the Blend:
Gekkou is a carefully balanced fusion of three iconic Uji cultivars — Samidori, Okumidori, and Gokou — blended by a single artisan farmer with decades of experience. This matcha doesn’t carry a Tea Master’s signature, but it more than earns its place through precision and soul.
Full-bodied, familiar, and deeply comforting — this is everyday excellence.
Origin & Process:
- Grown and blended by a small farm in Uji, Kyoto Prefecture
- Shade-grown for 25+ days
