Matcha Powder Suiren (Uji)

Suiren is a premium matcha powder suitable for koicha (thick tea). The flavour is rich in umami with a natural sweetness, whilst bitterness and astringency remain minimal. This results in a smooth and balanced flavour that develops gradually with every sip.

The texture is fine and refined, with a full body when prepared as koicha. The aroma reveals a light freshness, followed by subtle notes reminiscent of steamed chestnut and young spring vegetables.

This matcha is produced in Uji, Kyoto; the birthplace of high-quality Japanese matcha. The bright green colour reflects the careful cultivation and meticulous processing characteristic of traditional Uji production.

Suiren is ideal for those who prepare koicha and are looking for a matcha with depth, natural sweetness and little bitterness.

Store your matcha in an airtight, opaque container and keep it in the fridge to preserve its vibrant colour and rich umami flavour. To prevent condensation, which can affect the quality, always allow the cold container to come to room temperature for 15 minutes before opening. For optimal freshness, it is best to consume the matcha within 1 to 2 months of opening.
