Yabukita is the cultivar that built Japanese tea culture — around 75% of all tea in Japan comes from this variety. That's not a coincidence. It's consistent, reliable, and clean in the cup. First harvest, shade-grown, stone-milled. From Takayuki Matsuda's fields in Wazuka, Kyoto — a region producing tea for over 800 years.

What is [high-grade] matcha?
The term [ceremonial grade] has become a marketing label. We prefer to call matcha what it actually is: high-grade matcha. Not because it sounds premium, but because it reflects the quality in the cup.
[Brighter green colour, smoother texture, natural sweetness and a cleaner] more balanced taste. Good matcha looks different, tastes different and feels different from the very first sip.
