Tokihano-mukashi Matcha 常葉の昔 (Koicha 濃茶)

Origin: Kyoto, Japan.   30g/Tin   Tokihano-mukashi  Matcha is a revered selection by the 16th Grandmaster of the Ueda Sōko Tradition of Chanoyu, especially chosen for preparing Koicha (Thick Matcha). Predominantly featured in official Ueda Sōko Ryū tea ceremonies, this matcha is a testament to centuries of refinement. Cultivated in the esteemed tea estates surrounding Kyoto and meticulously overseen by Nippon Cha, its quality is unparalleled. Its name, inspired by a poem from the 12th Grandmaster, Ueda Jyōō, reflects its stature as a symbol of tradition and excellence in the warrior tea ceremony.
