Hanami - Ceremonial Grade Matcha

Hanami is the Japanese art of pausing beneath the cherry blossoms — and this matcha is that moment in a bowl. A first-harvest Uji ceremonial grade with a lush, creamy body, deep umami and notes of sweet edamame that linger. Whisk it simply with hot water and drink it as it's meant to be enjoyed — slowly, mindfully. A generous natural caffeine lift makes it pure, contemplative luxury.

Uji, just south of Kyoto, is where Japanese matcha was first made, and it is still the name growers measure themselves against. Hanami is single-origin Uji leaf from the first harvest, shade-grown and stone-milled to a deep jade powder with a jewel-like intensity. The result is silken and exquisitely refined, with profound umami, a sweetness that lingers after the bowl is empty, and exceptional depth. This is a tea to be whisked and tasted, not blended into anything.

To protect its colour, aroma and freshness, Hanami is packed in Miron violet glass. This biophotonic glass filters out the visible light that degrades matcha while letting through the UV and infrared frequencies that help preserve it, so the tea stays vivid and nutrient-dense for longer.
