Full-bodied with Subtle Floral Aromas
This hearty ceremonial-grade matcha brews a deeply rich emerald green cordial with robust body, sweet-savory undertones and a bouquet of floral notes and delicate tannins
Iridescent green in color, Meiko™ (an epithet referencing to the beautiful budding of a flowering plant) is masterfully blended to create a well-defined, flavorsome brew with sweet, mellow top notes, followed by savory undertones of salted caramel and with floral hints of tannins complementing the finish. This matcha is characterized by its remarkable ooika fragrance, a captivatingly refreshing aroma found only in the most exceptional shade-grown green tea. Perfect to be brewed on its own or enjoyed as part of a plethora of health elixirs of choice.

Daniel ★★★★★

I’ve been through a lot of matcha tins over the years, but this one’s the first that brews up that deep emerald cordial color right away without any bitterness. The rich, savory undertone makes it feel almost like a proper tea ceremony at home, even when I’m just whisking it for a morning latte.

Emily I. ★★★★★

The floral notes really come through in the aroma before you even take a sip, and the broth has that rich, savory depth that lingers nicely. Whisked up smooth with no clumps, and the 7.5kg bag is a serious commitment I'm already glad I made.

Robert Z. ★★★★★

The deep emerald color when whisked is genuinely stunning, and that floral aroma really does come through on the nose before the sweet-savory body hits your palate. For a bag this size, I’m honestly impressed the flavor stays so consistent cup after cup.
