Japanese matcha, Himawari, culinary matcha

Matcha Himawari er en høj kvalitet kulinarisk matcha lavet af vores gode ven og te-producent Hiraoka.
Denne matcha is perfect for matcha lattes, ice cream, desserts or in cold drinks like mock cocktails. 

Producing matcha is a difficult process where entire fields are covered so that the bushes and fine tea leaves are not exposed to direct sunlight. After the leaves are picked, they are processed through several stages, the final stage of which is grinding the leaves into a very fine powder. 

Yuta Hiraoka-san has worked in the family business Tamakawa Tea since he was young, where he had a special interest in tea tasting and tea blending. Through dedication and hard work, in September 2023 he became one of the youngest tea masters to achieve the highest rank (10th dan) at the 70th National Tea Examination Skills Competition.
