## Description

Product description Our collection of matcha from different tea regions of Japan Here are some tips If you're new to matcha - start with either our Superior Ceremonial Blend or Organic Ceremonial Blend if you prefer an organic product. They are beginner-friendly blends that provide versatility and a great taste. These also work great for lattes! If you've sample many different matcha, you may find that you have "outgrown" the beginner friendly blends. For an enjoyable matcha tea, try our Fragrant Yame Blend. It's sweetness and smooth texture will make for a pleasing experience. If you are an advanced matcha enthusiast, do also consider try our Master's Collection matcha. Our favourite is the Masters Collection Chiran Harvest matcha. If you intend to drink matcha as a caffeinated pick-me-up for sleepy afternoons, why not try it as a cold brew. That simply means cold water and matcha mixed together. All our blends work well for this, but our Fragrant Yame matcha provides the mildest, smoothest flavors. Understanding matcha Benefits of matcha Matcha provides a focused, mellow energy boost without jitters or the crash you normally expect from coffee. This is due to naturally present L-theanine (an amino acid) and caffeine in matcha. Matcha is also high in antioxidants, with a greater concentration compared to regular green teas. Why do we describe matcha as "blends"? Matcha is made from shade-grown tea leaves that is milled into a fine powder. The final taste of matcha depends on a tea master who will select different tea leaves for their taste attributes. The tea master “blends” these leaves together to accentuate certain flavors so that he can achieve a final result that the customer will find enjoyable. The overall flavor objectives will vary by region. The classical “Kyoto” style matcha prizes balance and umami. In the south of Japan, many tea masters are known for producing lighter, sweeter matcha. Between good matcha, there is no single “best” flavor. It is a matter of individual preference. As the world learns to appreciate matcha, we expect more innovative flavour profiles to emerge. Slow down and unwind with Usucha (traditional Japanese matcha tea) Enjoy the classic frothy thin tea ("usucha") at home. Use 1 tsp (2 grams) of matcha along with 3 oz of 170 degree F water. Best made using a bamboo whisk. If too you prefer it less strong, use 5 oz of water instead The best way to make Matcha Latte (hot or iced) every morning Create the base "matcha shot" with 1.5 tsp (3 grams) of matcha and 1 oz of water. Mix vigorously until there are no more clumps. Add 6 oz of your favourite milk and add sweetener to taste. This formula works for both hot and cold matcha lattes How to make an easy Cold Brew Matcha for better energy Add 1 tsp (2 grams) of matcha to 6-8 oz of cold water and mix. Adjust the amount of water according to your personal preference. We easily make cold brew matcha at home and at work using bottles. All you need to do is add matcha and water to a bottle and shake it up until the matcha is evenly mixed. Try this with coconut water instead of water for a real treat. Frequently Asked Questions 1. I’m new to matcha. Which blend should I choose? We recommend you to start with either the Organic First Spring Blend or Superior Blend. The Organic First Spring Blend is smooth, low in bitterness with a slight umami.The Superior Blend has a smooth, balanced flavor with moderate umami. Ideal for beginners and daily drinking.Both blends are versatile and excellent for making matcha lattes. 2. Is the bamboo whisk or electric whisk better for making matcha? It really depends on what you prefer. If you’re looking for a beautiful microfoam, the bamboo whisk (chasen) is a great choice. With a little practice, it’s simple to use and gives you more control over frothing and mixing. On the other hand, if convenience is key, an electric whisk is super handy. It works especially well for smaller servings—like mixing about 1 teaspoon of matcha into at least 4 ounces of liquid. Both options have their perks, so you can choose what works best for your matcha-making style! 3. How many servings of matcha latte can I make with 40g/1.4oz of matcha? We define one serving as 2 grams (about 1 teaspoon), but how much matcha you use per drink really depends on your taste and preference. If you’re just starting out, 2 grams is a great amount for a latte—it’s smooth and flavorful without being too strong. With this amount, you’ll get about 20 servings from a tin. For seasoned matcha lovers, you might prefer a bolder flavor by using 4 grams per latte. This will, of course, give you fewer servings per tin, but it’s perfect for those who enjoy a stronger matcha kick. 4. I’m worried about radiation and heavy metals. Do you test for radiation and heavy metals in your matcha? We rigorously test every crop of matcha for potential hazards, including radiation and heavy metals. These tests are essential for our factories to maintain their food safety certifications and licenses, which are required for continued operations. Additionally, the Japanese government conducts its own independent radiation testing on all food products. The results have consistently been negative, and they’re publicly available in English on the Japanese Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare’s website. 5. What if I don’t like it? We’re here to help! Preparing matcha properly can make all the difference in bringing out its best flavor, and we’re happy to guide you with recipes, tips, and techniques. If your product didn’t meet your expectations, no worries—just reach out to us through the “contact seller” option. To help us resolve your concern quickly, it would be great if you could send us pictures of the product and its batch code.If you can also share how you’ve been preparing your matcha—your recipe and method—we’d be happy to provide personalized advice to help you get the most out of your matcha experience. We’ll do everything we can to ensure you’re satisfied and enjoying every sip! 6. How long can I keep my matcha for? You can store matcha for up to 12 months in an opaque, airtight container from the date it’s ground. Once opened, we recommend enjoying it within 1–2 months for the best flavor. To keep your matcha as fresh as possible, it’s a good idea to store it in the fridge. 7. How fresh are Naoki Matcha’s products? We ship our matcha in small batches to ensure freshness, and our products typically have at least 6–9 months of shelf life remaining. desertcart handles delivery using the “First-In-First-Out” method to keep things as fresh as possible. That said, occasional mishaps can happen. If you receive a product with less-than-ideal shelf life or a damaged bag due to delivery issues, don’t worry—just reach out to us! After a quick review, we’ll be happy to provide a replacement and make things right. 8. What does “ceremonial-grade” really mean? “Ceremonial-grade” doesn’t have a regulated definition, but for us, it means matcha that’s high-quality enough to enjoy on its own. Save for our “All Purpose Culinary Grade Matcha”, we would consider our entire lineup to meet our criteria for “ceremonial grade”. When it comes to matcha, the price usually reflects the quality. Higher-grade matcha typically has a smoother mouthfeel, less bitterness, and more umami, which is why it’s priced higher. It’s all about finding the right balance between taste and budget for your matcha journey!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent ceremonial grade matcha. Yame Blend.
*by S***R on 13 April 2025*

I drink only ceremonial grade matcha and I usually drink it straight with nothing added. I love to drink both Taste of Kyoto Reserve and also Element matcha and Wilderness Poets ceremonial grade. This Naoki is a delightful matcha. I ordered the Fragrent Yame Blend. It is rich and creamy, sweet. There is a slight grassy bitterness, but I think I make it strong so that might not show up if made weaker. Beautiful bright green color. I hope it shows in the photos, I did not use a filter so the green that you see is just what it looks like in the sunlight. Instant high energy boost. Very fresh. I think the $25 I payed is a good price for this matcha.
