Okumidori Matcha – First Harvest from Uji, Kyoto

Our Okumidori Matcha is carefully selected from Uji, Kyoto, a region renowned for high-quality matcha. Each batch is single-origin and comes from the first harvest, giving it a vibrant green color, silky texture, and balanced umami flavor.

Traditional Production

  • The youngest leaves are grown in the shade for weeks
  • Only the first harvest leaves are used
  • Traditionally stone-ground for a smooth, fine powder
  • Produced in small batches, with each harvest evaluated for color, texture, and taste

Why First Harvest Matcha is Special

First harvest leaves contain more amino acids and have a refined, delicate flavor. Because matcha is consumed as a powder, the origin, harvest timing, and processing directly affect its quality.

How to Enjoy
