Kanbayashi Shunsho Matcha – Soumei no Mukashi
Ceremonial-Grade Japanese Matcha Powder
Soumei no Mukashi (奏明の昔, “Echoes of the Past”) is a commemorative ceremonial matcha crafted by Kanbayashi Shunsho, one of Uji’s oldest tea houses with over 450 years of expertise. Developed to honour the legacy of Sen no Rikyū, this blend delivers profound depth in every bowl.
Flavour Profile
- Rich umami core balanced by gentle natural sweetness
- Silky finish with a smooth, lingering aftertaste
Aroma & Texture
- Vibrant jade-green powder emits a clean, vegetal fragrance when opened
- Finely stone-milled for a creamy mouthfeel and stable froth in both thin (usucha) and thick (koicha) preparations
Why It Stands Out
- Crafted as a special blend to commemorate legendary tea master Sen no Rikyū, reflecting centuries of chanoyu tradition
- Stone-ground in small batches to preserve peak freshness, colour, and nutrient-rich umami
Perfect For
- Koicha ceremonies seeking deep, resonant bowls
- Usucha rituals for daily mindful enjoyment
- Elevated matcha lattes or chilled whisked drinks that benefit from its balanced sweetness
Product Details
- Net Weight: 20g / 40g
- Grade: Ceremonial
- Origin: Uji, Kyoto Prefecture, Japan
- Producer: Kanbanyashi Shunsho (est. mid-1500s)
Soumei no Mukashi captures the spirit of Uji’s tea heritage - a matcha that speaks to the past while inviting you into a refined, present-day tea experience.
