An extra early harvest from the popular tea farm on Yakushima Island, Kagoshima, Japan, this blend by farmer Watanabe-san is an exquisite taste of umami as a lightly steamed sencha. Package may differ from photo.
\nSteaming: Asamushi, or lightly steamed. This results a leaf that is kept more intact than longer steaming, and therefore results in a clearer, liquid that extracts more slowly from the leaf for multiple steepings. This type of steaming is usually reserved for higher quality leaf.
\n
\nOrganic certification: Note to wholesale customers, this product is grown and processed to JAS organic certification. Please contact us for proper organic export documentation. Minimum purchase may be required.
We recommend the warm water steeping method for this Yakushima Shincha. Steep it in a small amount at low temperature to enjoy the umami flavors more distinctly, then again at higher temperatures to release more flavors.

Steeping Notes
\n
Consider also cold steeping or ice steeping (seeSteeping Techniques). The main thing to note is that lower water temperatures create a sweeter flavor profile while hotter temperatures create a more bitter, astringent profile. More water or less tea will reduce the strength of the tea.
3rd steeping - Increase time to 30-60 seconds or to desired strength.

Steeping Notes
\n
Consider also cold steeping or ice steeping (seeSteeping Techniques). The main thing to note is that lower water temperatures create a sweeter flavor profile while hotter temperatures create a more bitter, astringent profile. More water or less tea will reduce the strength of the tea.
For an intense, but silky smooth matcha latte, or for a decent straight matcha (usucha), our Naruto Barista Grade (or Latte Grade) Matcha balances savory umami and fresh notes of grassy meadows that allow the matcha to stand out when blending with milk.
\n
鳴門 Naruto - The white ocean whirlpools caused by the rising tide famous in the Naruto Strait between Awajishima and Shikoku Islands in Japan's Inner Sea.
\n
Grinding Dates
\n
Grinding dates are an important factor in determining the quality of the matcha as the powder degrades in flavor, aroma and color over time. We are ordering production of this product every 1-2 months, so you may assume that no more than 3 months have past since grinding.
\n
\n
Naturally Grown Label
\n
The \"Naturally Grown\" series are products chosen by Yunomi Tea Merchant Ian that have been verified to be grown without use of pesticides / synthetic fertilizers.
\n
\n
Products may also be certified organic according to the Japanese JAS standard, so custom production requests (10kg+) can be certified organic under equivalency agreements with USA, EU, Canada, etc.
Based on our own tasting, this product has the following profile - created with 3g of matcha, 100 ml of water, 70C degrees. However, tastings are not conducted side by side, and there are many factors that may affect thequality you yourself taste: age of the matcha after grinding, different water profiles, ambient temperature, preparation styles, etc. Please use this profile as a simple reference.
\n
\n
\nUmami: 10/20 (20 being the richest umami)
\n
\nCreaminess: 10/20 (20 being the creamiest)
\n
\nLack of Astringency: 9/20 (20 being least astringent)
\n
\nLack of Bitterness: 10/20 (20 being least bitter)
\n
\nTexture: 6/10 (10 being the smoothest grinding)
\n
\nColor: 6/10 (10 having the greenest, most vibrant color)

Product Details
\n
\n
\nIngredients: Green tea.
\n
\nHarvest: Spring
\n
\nCultivation: Grown without use of pesticides / synthetic fertilizers. Shaded for 3-4 weeks before harvest.
\nStorage: We recommend storing one 30-gram bag at room temperature for daily use in the screw top can or resealable bag, and the remaining in your freezer for long-term storage if you buy more than one at once. NOTE: For freezer storage, double-seal in a plastic ziplock bag and tupperware container for maximum freshness and to avoid other food smells from affecting the matcha. Always allow the bag to sit for 24-hours before unsealing to acclimate to room temperature. This avoids condensation from damaging the matcha powder.
\n
\n
How much does 30 grams of matcha make?
\n
It depends on how thick you make your matcha and how much you make, but if you use 1 gram (about 1/3 teaspoon) to make a 100 ml cup, that's 30 cups of matcha!
\n
Did you know matcha is best when it's freshly ground?
\n
How good your matcha is depends of course on the quality of the underlying leaf. However, producers buy many different production lots from many different farmers. Their skill, the reason why we call them master blenders, is in blending the leaves prior to grinding to create a specific profile in terms of powder color, powder aroma, grain size,matcha color, andmost importantly the flavor of the matcha.
\n
While the harvest season can make a big difference in quality since larger autumn leaves will be more bitter and more difficult to grind into fine powder, the harvest year is not necessarily important particularly right after the spring harvest (May - August). At this time, leaves may actually be too fresh to make good matcha--their flavor may create matcha that is very strong in umami but also too bitter.Meanwhile, leaves that have aged over the past yearwillbemore mellowand perfect for balancing the fresh leaf.
\n
Matcha however does get old quickly after grinding. In 6 months after grinding the color will fade, and the aroma will disappear. After 9 months, the strength of the flavor will also fade.As a result, higher grade matcha tends to have a best by date of 3-6 months, while lower grade matcha has a best by date of 12 months in Japan. Western brands often have a 18-24 month shelf life though.
\n
As a rule,we do our best to ensure that the Yunomi branded matcha is never older the 6 months from grinding, and that matcha other brands are never older than 6 months from procurement.

For an intense, but silky smooth matcha latte, or for a decent straight matcha (usucha), our Naruto Barista Grade (or Latte Grade) Matcha balances savory umami and fresh notes of grassy meadows that allow the matcha to stand out when blending with milk.

Grinding Dates
\n
Grinding dates are an important factor in determining the quality of the matcha as the powder degrades in flavor, aroma and color over time. We are ordering production of this product every 1-2 months, so you may assume that no more than 3 months have past since grinding.
\n
\n
Naturally Grown Label
\n
The \"Naturally Grown\" series are products chosen by Yunomi Tea Merchant Ian that have been verified to be grown without use of pesticides / synthetic fertilizers.
\n
\n
Products may also be certified organic according to the Japanese JAS standard, so custom production requests (10kg+) can be certified organic under equivalency agreements with USA, EU, Canada, etc.
Based on our own tasting, this product has the following profile - created with 3g of matcha, 100 ml of water, 70C degrees. However, tastings are not conducted side by side, and there are many factors that may affect thequality you yourself taste: age of the matcha after grinding, different water profiles, ambient temperature, preparation styles, etc. Please use this profile as a simple reference.

Product Details
\n
\n
\nIngredients: Green tea.
\n
\nHarvest: Spring
\n
\nCultivation: Grown without use of pesticides / synthetic fertilizers. Shaded for 3-4 weeks before harvest.
\nStorage: We recommend storing one 30-gram bag at room temperature for daily use in the screw top can or resealable bag, and the remaining in your freezer for long-term storage if you buy more than one at once. NOTE: For freezer storage, double-seal in a plastic ziplock bag and tupperware container for maximum freshness and to avoid other food smells from affecting the matcha. Always allow the bag to sit for 24-hours before unsealing to acclimate to room temperature. This avoids condensation from damaging the matcha powder.
\n
\n
How much does 30 grams of matcha make?
\n
It depends on how thick you make your matcha and how much you make, but if you use 1 gram (about 1/3 teaspoon) to make a 100 ml cup, that's 30 cups of matcha!
\n
Did you know matcha is best when it's freshly ground?
\n
How good your matcha is depends of course on the quality of the underlying leaf. However, producers buy many different production lots from many different farmers. Their skill, the reason why we call them master blenders, is in blending the leaves prior to grinding to create a specific profile in terms of powder color, powder aroma, grain size,matcha color, andmost importantly the flavor of the matcha.
\n
While the harvest season can make a big difference in quality since larger autumn leaves will be more bitter and more difficult to grind into fine powder, the harvest year is not necessarily important particularly right after the spring harvest (May - August). At this time, leaves may actually be too fresh to make good matcha--their flavor may create matcha that is very strong in umami but also too bitter.Meanwhile, leaves that have aged over the past yearwillbemore mellowand perfect for balancing the fresh leaf.
\n
Matcha however does get old quickly after grinding. In 6 months after grinding the color will fade, and the aroma will disappear. After 9 months, the strength of the flavor will also fade.As a result, higher grade matcha tends to have a best by date of 3-6 months, while lower grade matcha has a best by date of 12 months in Japan. Western brands often have a 18-24 month shelf life though.
\n
As a rule,we do our best to ensure that the Yunomi branded matcha is never older the 6 months from grinding, and that matcha other brands are never older than 6 months from procurement.
Creating organic gyokuro has been something of a holy grail for those interested. Why? Due to the heavy fertilization that is necessary to produce the richness in gyokuro, it has been very difficult to achieve using organic fertilizers. This attempt by Nishide-san and the farmers he works with is quite decent with rich umami flavors that spread across the tongue.
\n
This Nishide OG18 gyokuro was made from two cultivars that are from the Kyoto prefecture: Gokou and Ujimidori. These two cultivars were especially developed to suit the soil and climate of Kyoto prefecture. Both are cultivars that are very appropriate for shading. That is why they are often made into gyokuro or matcha. With the gokou cultivar known for its' rich umami and the Ujimidori characteristic of its aromatic characteristics (floral, creamy aroma), please delight in the dance of these two cultivars! Oh, and please don't forget to enjoy across multiple (3-4) steeps.

The Nishide Tea Factory is managed by husband and wife team, Takashi and Atsuko Nishide and their family. Established over 140 years ago, the Nishide family buys aracha tea (unrefined leaves) from the tea farms of Kyoto and surrounding prefectures, and refines them further to craft high quality tea leaves that are uniform in color and shape, and of course excellent in flavor.

About the Ogura Family
\n
Yuki and Junko Ogura moved to Odawara from Tokyo a decade ago to pursue a life closer to nature, and engage in their passion for tea. Learning from the tea farmers in Ashigara, the town just north of Odawara City, they cultivate tea without the use of pesticides.
Unique to the city of Kyoto from which it gets name, Kyobancha is harvested from tea leaves and twigs that have matured over the winter months and then roasted producing a very woodsy flavor.
\n
Often called 'bancha for babies' (akachan bancha 赤ちゃん番茶) because it has almost no caffeine, it is also called 'spring bancha' (haru bancha 春番茶) because it is harvested in March from winter matured leaves. Rarely offered outside of Japan, it is even quite rare to find it in supermarkets in Japan as well.
\n
Shinichi Kihara's Kyobancha gives off a smoky aroma, but surprises you with a flavor that is both smoky as well as sweet. (See our steeping notes.)
\n
Please note that because the leaves are unrolled, they are quite bulky, resulting in a higher shipping price than 200g of other tea. This price is built into the product price rather than the shipping fee. If buying in amounts larger than what is listed, please contact us for more accurate pricing.
\n
\n
Tea Stories
\n
One of the Yunomi staff was joking about how the kyobancha tea leaves look like dried leaves you might find in your garden, right before she (and she shall remain anonymous) took a sip and exclaimed, 'Ah! Oishii! (Delicious!)' -- You can't judge a book by its cover...

While matcha is often promoted for its high level of catechin and the fact that you drink the whole leaf, in fact on average matcha has less catechin (antioxidants) than unshaded green tea because the shading in tea leaf meant for matcha limits the amount of catechin produced in order to reduce the bitterness of the matcha.
\n
Compared to the 50 - 70 mg of catechin per gram of matcha, this organic green tea powder product from Mitsui Meicha (one of the largest producers of tea in Japan after Ito En) has 136 mg per gram, about 5400 mg per 40g bag.
\n
Made 100% from green tea grown in Japan, on fields that have not used synthetic fertilizers nor synthetic pesticides for at least three years according to standard practice for certified organic tea.

About the Nakai family
\n
Since the late 17th century, the Nakai family has been cultivating tea in the village of Wazuka, Kyoto. The 6th tea master, Masao Nakai, began organic and non-pesticide cultivation in 1980, a time when few people were concerned about producing organically.

About the Nakai family
\n
Since the late 17th century, the Nakai family has been cultivating tea in the village of Wazuka, Kyoto. The 6th tea master, Masao Nakai, began organic and non-pesticide cultivation in 1980, a time when few people were concerned about producing organically. Aiming to create an agricultural system that coexists with the natural environment of the beautiful mountains, Nakai-san was a pioneer in the tea industry of Kyoto. His son, 7th tea master Michio Nakai, continues this tradition today.

The taste profile is a simple, easy-to-drink sencha——the deep taste of nature. This sencha comes from the first tea harvest which spans from early to mid-May, including the native species (Zairai) which is the beginning of Japanese tea. Setoya is the name given to the area in Fujieda City, Shizuoka Prefecture, where many of this tea vendor's fields are located. Please enjoy the unique taste and sweetness of mountain grown tea.
