Aroma: The aromas are faint and only discernible from the broth. They offer hints of honeydew melon sweetness over a base note of cooked spinach. Since it comes from air-dried teas, there are no notes of toastiness. Flavors: Traditionally enjoyed hot (although we offer it iced at our stores), Jobetsugi is a mouth filling experience. The spinach and artichoke flavors are most obvious. Since this is a thin matcha, the flavors are muted,

Description

Matcha is green tea. The leaves are shaded for weeks before harvest, then dried and stone-ground into a fine powder, so you whisk the leaf into water instead of steeping it.

Tea has been our family's work for three generations. John Harney started the company in 1983, and we still follow his one rule: only buy and blend teas that make us smile. We have sourced Japanese green teas for more than forty years, and we buy this matcha from family growers who have been making it for generations in Kagoshima season after season. The art of making matcha is a centuries-old craft in Japan. We lean on our relationships with those Japanese families and hold it to the same standard as every tea we sell.

It is grown in Kagoshima, on the southern island of Kyushu. This is the idea John started with, an everyday luxury in a bowl: certified organic, shade grown, and priced for every day enjoyment.

 Details: Matcha powdered green tea has been the pride of Uji, Japan, for several centuries. Recently, Kagoshima, Japan, has developed shaded organic tea fields specifically for matcha production.
 Dry Leaves: This tea is made from a raw tea called Tencha that is air dried, then dried flakes are ground between two stones, just like centuries ago. The result is a fine powder that is almost neon green.
 Liquor: The liquor is made by dissolving the tea powder into water. There is no brewing like with other teas. You drink the leaf! The liquor is thick and frothy from the mixing. It is an opaque brilliant green color.
 Aroma: This certified organic matcha has light notes of casaba melon and lettuce.
 Flavors: This everyday matcha has some of the flavors found in other matchas, just a bit more muted.
 Caffeine Level: Caffeinated
 Body: This summer harvest Matcha has some umami that give it a good mouth feel. Add your favorite "milk" and it is even better.
 Brewing Time: N/A
 Brewing Temp: 175º

An Everyday Matcha of High Standards

Good matcha does not have to be expensive or complicated. This one is certified organic, grown in shaded fields in Kagoshima, and meets our standards

Organic

Stone-milled

The shaded leaves are ground between granite stones turning slow enough to stay cool, which is what keeps the powder this fine and this green.

Shaded fields in Kagoshima

Kagoshima employs shaded organic fields for matcha. Shading the plants before harvest is what gives matcha its deep green color and smooth, sweet character.

Chosen to Harney Standards

Sourced and tasted to the same standards as all of our teas, as we've done since 1983.

Taste

Naturally sweet, soft and grassy.

Smooth and easygoing, a little more mellow than the ceremonial grades, which is exactly what makes it an everyday cup. Gentle umami, a clean grassy edge, no bitterness to manage.
