The highest grade we carry. Made from shade-grown leaves to concentrate every compound that months of patient cultivation produced. This is the version that Japanese tea ceremony was built around. On Canyon Road we treat it the same way. Your server will show you exactly how to prepare it. It's worth every second.
Taste: Exceptionally smooth and naturally sweet with profound umami depth and a vivid jade color that no lower-grade matcha produces. No bitterness when prepared correctly. The benchmark — the cup that everything else on the matcha menu is measured against. Order it when you want to understand what matcha actually is.
Ingredients: Organic ceremonial grade Japanese matcha powder (stone-ground, shade-grown, Japan)
