Ichibancha Matcha

Ichibancha means “first tea”, referring to the first harvest of tea leaves in the spring.

Ceremonial quality, perfect for traditional preparation

A ceremonial grade matcha crafted from the finest spring tea harvests, showcasing the purest expression of terroir.

Delicately floral on the nose, with beautifully balanced sweet and savoury notes, and a bright ‘cut grass’ finish.

To appreciate the best of this sweet and delicate matcha we recommend making it in a traditional, ceremonial style or drunk cold with water – still or sparkling!

Top Tip: Avoid make matcha with boiling water! Water over 70°C will extract the bitter tannins in your tea rather than the delicious, sweet notes.
