Description

This is the cream of the crop. It is a ceremonial matcha reserved for special ceremonies. This tea is grown along the banks of the Uji River, where the soil is rich. The tea plants are deeply shaded. The leaves are hand-picked while still young. Since it’s only harvested once a season, the tea plant has the rest of the year to build up and make the best matcha next season. This cycle creates maximum umami levels. The tea is air-dried and ground by traditional stone mills.

Details: Matcha powdered green tea has been the pride of Uji, Japan for several centuries. The award-winning Unjonotomo (extra thick grade) is our super-premium matcha made from shade-grown Tencha leaves. It is thick and sweet, with luxurious vegetal flavors that create an extraordinary beverage.

Dry Leaves: This tea is made from a raw tea called Tencha that is air-dried, and then dried flakes are ground between two stones, just like centuries ago. The result is a fine powder that is almost neon green.

Liquor: The liquor is made by dissolving the tea powder into water. There is no brewing like with other teas. You drink the leaf! The liquor is thick and frothy from the mixing. It is an opaque, brilliant green color.

Aroma: The aromas are faint and only discernible from the broth. They offer hints of honeydew melon sweetness over a base note of cooked spinach. Since it comes from air-dried teas, there are no notes of toastiness.

Flavors: Unjonotomo is very thick-bodied, but the sweetest and creamiest of our Matchas. The flavors of spinach and artichoke are amplified exponentially.

Caffeine Level: Caffeinated

Body: Heavy-bodied. Unjonotomo is an "extra thick" matcha using high-quality, sweet leaves. It is a smooth and creamy matcha.
