Saijoen Matcha - Sawa Ceremonial Grade Japanese Matcha Powder
Saijoen Matcha – Sawa
Ceremonial Grade Japanese Matcha Powder
Experience the harmonious balance of tradition and modernity with Saijoen's Sawa Matcha, a ceremonial-grade green tea powder crafted by Aiya Co., Ltd., a renowned tea producer from Nishio, Aichi Prefecture, Japan, with a legacy dating back to 1888.
Flavour Profile
Sawa Matcha offers a mild and clean taste, characterized by subtle notes of young grass, boiled greens, and hints of steamed beans and lightly roasted brown rice. Its light umami and gentle sweetness make it an ideal choice for daily consumption.
Aroma & Texture
The matcha emits a fresh and pleasant aroma, which, upon whisking, transforms into a more pronounced fragrance with hints of fresh grass and a touch of nuttiness. Its moderately fine texture ensures a smooth and frothy brew when properly sifted and whisked.
Versatile Applications
While traditionally prepared as usucha (thin tea), Sawa Matcha's balanced flavour profile also makes it suitable for matcha lattes, cold whisked beverages, and culinary creations seeking a touch of authentic Japanese matcha.
