100% Samidori Single Cultivar Matcha

Experience the delicate sweetness and clean flavor of this 100% Samidori matcha, a rare Japanese green tea cultivar with lower caffeine bitterness. This matcha is perfect for enjoying multiple times a day without overwhelming the palate.

The Samidori cultivar is exceptionally rare, making up just 0.6% of Japan’s total green tea production (Japan’s Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry, and Fisheries, 2020). What makes this matcha even more special? It is grown without pesticides, preserving its natural purity and vibrant green color. Compared to other matcha, Samidori matcha offers a sweeter taste and lower umami, making it ideal for those with sensitive palates or matcha connoisseurs looking for a unique tea experience.

Sourced from Wazuka city in Uji, Kyoto Prefecture, this 100% Samidori matcha is part of our Tea Minus One collection, dedicated to offering high-quality Japanese matcha from small family tea farms in Uji, Japan. Uji has been at the heart of Japanese tea culture for centuries—home to the first tea trees planted in Japan and the birthplace of the Zen Buddhist tea ceremony tradition dating back to 805 AD.
