Hekisuien Matcha - Miyako no Fuji 30g Ceremonial Grade Japanese Matcha Powder
Hekisuien Matcha – Miyako no Fuji (都の富士) 30 g
Ceremonial-Grade Matcha Powder - “Capital’s Fuji”
Miyako no Fuji, meaning “Fuji of the Capital,” is a distinguished ceremonial-grade matcha from Hekisuien, a trusted Uji tea maker since 1865. Named in poetic homage to Mount Hiei - often referred to as “Miyako no Fuji” in ancient works - this matcha was cherished by Sokuchusai, the 13th grand tea master of Omotesenke.
Flavour Profile
- Bold umami richness with mild natural sweetness and a smooth, brisk finish - perfectly balanced for everyday ceremonial enjoyment
- Structured and smooth, offering a delightful drinking experience even with minimal fuss
Aroma & Texture
- Lush emerald green powder with vibrant colour and fresh vegetal aroma
- Finely stone-milled to create a creamy froth and silky mouthfeel, excellent in both usucha (thin tea) and koicha (thick tea) forms
Why It Stands Out
- Favoured by an esteemed tea master, reflecting its ceremonial authenticity and historical prestige
- A refined matcha with depth and fragrance, ideal for both mindful rituals and elevated everyday use
Perfect For
- Traditional tea ceremonies or personal contemplative sips
- Luxury usucha - smooth and lush for daily indulgence
- Matcha lattes - adds a full-bodied touch while maintaining clarity of flavour
