Intense with a Mellow Roasted Flavor
Our signature ceremonial-grade matcha is artisan roasted to produce a rich, creamy body and smooth mouthfeel not unlike a perfectly brewed espresso
Boasting the deepest shade of green reminiscent of Japanese pine trees, Matsu is characterized by its captivating roasted aromas brought to the fore by our artisanal roasting technique handed down through generations of matcha sommeliers. The result is a deeply rich and complex symphony of flavors, with notes of 'umami' and savory-sweet undertones that round out the intensity of the roast, culminating in an exquisite blend with a full body and long, creamy finish.

Eli A. ★★★★★

The roasted flavor gives it an espresso-like depth that I didn’t expect from matcha, and it whisks up with almost no lumps. I’ve been swapping my morning coffee for this and the smoothness really carries through the whole cup.

Emma ★★★★★

The roasted edge really comes through in the first sip—it’s bold and rich, almost like a slow-brewed espresso, and I’ve been reaching for it over my usual morning coffee. The 20g tin has lasted me two weeks of daily bowls, and the creaminess holds up even when I whisk it with just water.

Sebastian ★★★★★

The creamy body is what sold me — it’s thicker than any matcha I’ve tried, almost like a latte without milk. That mellow roasted flavor keeps it smooth to the last sip, no bitterness at all. I’m already halfway through the tin and it’s only been a week.
