Overview
About Tenryū Tsuyuhikari - Ceremonial Grade Matcha
Discover the flavour, energy and ritual behind this matcha.
The jewel of the Masters Collection. A rare single-cultivar ceremonial matcha grown for depth — full-bodied and velvety, with profound umami and a whisper of floral sweetness that unfolds slowly across the palate. Reserved for the connoisseur and best enjoyed the traditional way: whisked, unhurried, undiluted. A powerful natural caffeine content to match its intensity. Small-batch and single-origin.
Grown in the mountain region of Tenryū in Shizuoka, from 100% single-cultivar Tsuyuhikari — an uncommon varietal that rewards the extra care it demands. The high elevation shows in the cup: smooth with a creamy mouthfeel, low astringency and gentle umami, bright and clean with a subtle sweetness and an ethereal finish. Where the other teas in this collection are generous, this one is precise.
Certified organic by JAS (Japanese Agricultural Standards) and grown without pesticides or synthetic fertilisers. Packed in Miron violet glass, which filters out the visible light that degrades matcha while letting through the UV and infrared frequencies that help preserve it.
