- Perfect for making traditional hot tea ("Usu-cha")
- Excellent for daily drinking
- A balanced, sweet flavor for tea lovers
As Aiya’s most popular grade of Matcha, this Ceremonial Grade offers a beautiful jade green color and a mild, natural sweetness. The slight Matcha astringency (from tea catechins) perfectly balances the sweetness (from L-theanine amino acids), making it ideal for Usu-cha, or thin style tea. It is called “ceremonial” grade because the quality is high enough for formal Japanese tea ceremonies.
All of Aiya’s Matcha is produced in the Nisho region of Aichi prefecture, Japan, where the finest Matcha has been grown for over 800 years. Each 30g (1.1 oz) tin is good for approximately 30 servings.
