Choosing your matcha
How to Pick Your Matcha
01
For Daily Lattes
Choose a versatile ceremonial grade like NagiSakura or Seifu. Their balanced umami and subtle sweetness shine through milk and plant-based alternatives without overpowering the drink.
02
For Straight Tea
Reach for Ichiban or WakabaKaze. These first-harvest picks carry a smoother, more delicate profile with lower bitterness and a lasting finish — ideal for traditional usucha.
03
For Dessert & Signatures
Hojicha KinSan brings roasted, caramel notes that pair beautifully with sweet dishes. Pair it with NagiSakura or Seifu for layered signature drinks and pastries.
