Kanbayashi Shunsho Matcha - Yuzuriha Mukashi Ceremonial Grade Matcha Powder
Kanbayashi Shunsho Matcha – Yuzuriha Mukashi
Ceremonial Grade Japanese Matcha Powder
Yuzuriha Mukashi is a premium ceremonial-grade matcha crafted by Kanbayashi Shunsho, a venerable tea producer from Uji, Kyoto, with a legacy spanning over 450 years. Named after the handcrafted tea scoop "Yuzuriha" by tea master Sen Sōtan, this matcha embodies the rich heritage and meticulous craftsmanship of Japanese tea culture.
Flavor Profile
Yuzuriha Mukashi offers a full-bodied and concentrated flavor that develops gradually and lingers on the palate. Its taste is reminiscent of gyokuro, presenting a sweeter, slightly nutty depth rather than a light floral freshness.
Aroma & Texture
This matcha exudes a rich and concentrated aroma, with a texture and intensity more akin to koicha, despite being prepared as usucha. The powder is finely stone-milled, ensuring a smooth and frothy brew.
Versatile Applications
While traditionally prepared as usucha (thin tea), Yuzuriha Mukashi's robust flavor profile also makes it suitable for matcha lattes and other culinary creations seeking a touch of authentic Japanese matcha.
