Experience the refined artistry of Japanese tea with Marukyu Koyamaen's Hekiun no Mukashi—a ceremonial-grade matcha esteemed by the Yabunouchi School. This versatile matcha is meticulously crafted to excel in both koicha (thick tea) and usucha (thin tea) preparations, embodying the rich traditions of Japanese tea ceremonies.

Flavour Profile: Hekiun no Mukashi presents a harmonious balance of flavours. When prepared as koicha, it offers a pleasantly bitter taste complemented by subtle umami notes, with sweetness emerging in the aftertaste. As usucha, the bitterness is more subdued, providing a smoother and milder experience.

Aroma: The dry powder emits a scent reminiscent of cream cheese or Neufchâtel, suggesting a creamy undertone. Upon contact with water, it releases subtle umami aromas with hints of muted sweet and citrusy notes. 

Texture & Preparation: Finely stone-ground to a smooth consistency, Hekiun no Mukashi whisks into a velvety froth. Its adaptability makes it suitable for both koicha and usucha, allowing you to tailor your tea experience to your preference.

Perfect For:

  • Traditional Japanese tea ceremonies

  • Personal tea rituals seeking versatility

  • Connoisseurs exploring nuanced matcha profiles

Origin: Sourced from Uji, Kyoto, Japan—a region renowned for producing some of the world's finest matcha.

Immerse yourself in the elegant complexity of Marukyu Koyamaen's Hekiun no Mukashi—a matcha that gracefully bridges tradition and versatility.
