From the celebrated coastal terroir of Sonogi comes a matcha of legendary balance. A masterful blend, it unites the powerful umami of the Tsuyuhikari cultivar with the gentle sweetness and vibrant colour of pure Saemidori.

The Sonogi region, washed by the mild sea breezes of Omura Bay, imparts a unique, almost oceanic minerality to its teas.This blend is a study in harmony: Tsuyuhikari provides a profound, savory depth, while Saemidori contributes a brilliant emerald hue and a creamy, sweet finish. By bringing these two celebrated cultivars together, the result is a matcha that is both intensely flavourful and remarkably smooth, with no bitterness.
