Tsuji-san creates a very small micro-lot of tencha leaves for submission to tea competitions each year. This limited edition version is grown under the same shading as the main batch of leaves, but is a careful hand picking of just a few kilograms of the very best of the best of these leaves while they are still young, then carefully processed and stone mill ground into matcha.
2024’s batch is a very delicate, strongly sweet cup of ambrosia, a light white wine vs the bold umami taste of many other high grade matcha
