Ceremonial Uji Matcha Powder

Ceremonial Uji Matcha “Yui” – 100% Kyoto-Grown, Pure, and Artisanal

Crafted from carefully cultivated spring sprouts in southern Kyoto, near the Kizu River, Ceremonial Uji Matcha “Yui” delivers a mellow aroma, deep umami, and a clean, elegant finish. The tea is grown on a small, family-run farm that Morii works with directly, allowing a close connection to both the land and the people behind the leaves.

This matcha is produced with uncompromising purity — no pesticides, chemical fertilizers, herbicides, or livestock compost. Instead, the farmers rely solely on natural organic fertilizer made from hand-pressed rapeseed oil cake. Because matcha is consumed whole, every step of cultivation and production is carried out with exceptional care for safety, quality, and integrity.

Shaded, Aged, and Finely Milled

Young spring leaves are shaded for approximately three weeks to increase their theanine content, enhancing natural sweetness and umami. After harvest, the leaves are processed into tencha, gently aged over the summer, and then slowly ground using a traditional bowl mill to a fine, stone-grade texture.

The result is a smooth, vibrant matcha with remarkable depth, balance, and clarity.

Perfect for Matcha Lattes and Creative Drinks

The rich yet balanced profile stands up beautifully to milk. Use 2 g per cup for matcha lattes with a clean, rounded flavour.

For summer, simply add matcha powder, water, and ice to a bottle and shake for an instant cold matcha.

For a refreshing variation, dissolve 5 g in a small amount of water and top with soda for sparkling matcha. Sweeten lightly with honey or pair with citrus. Add your favourite spirit for a refined, tea-based cocktail.

Exceptional in Sweets and Desserts

Premium Uji Matcha “Yui” integrates seamlessly into tiramisu, panna cotta, cheesecake, and other delicate desserts. It can also be sprinkled over ice cream, yogurt, or granola for an effortless upgrade.

Low-temperature desserts best highlight matcha’s pure flavour — mixing it with fresh cream creates a rich, elegant dessert with minimal effort and no bitterness.

Experience matcha crafted with devotion — shaded, aged, meticulously milled, and grown with absolute purity — for a cup that is refined, balanced, and deeply satisfying.
