Kyoto Ujitawara Tea House Matcha Kyo no Hana – Premium Uji Matcha Powder 40g Can

Experience the soul of traditional Japanese tea with Kyoto Ujitawara Tea House’s “Kyo no Hana” Matcha, a premium Uji-grown matcha crafted using centuries-old techniques. This high-grade ceremonial matcha is cultivated using the covered (ooishita) method, ensuring a soft, vibrant green leaf rich in umami and nutrients.

The tencha leaves used for this matcha are steamed, dried, and stone-ground slowly into an ultra-fine powder—just 35g per hour—to preserve color, aroma, and flavor without heat damage. The result is a smooth, mellow tea ideal for tea ceremonies, matcha lattes, wagashi pairings, or daily relaxation.

Steeped in 800 years of tradition, this matcha traces its roots to Zen monk Eisai, who brought powdered tea culture to Japan from China. Cultivated in Ujitawara, Kyoto, one of the birthplaces of Japanese tea, “Kyo no Hana” captures the harmony between nature, craftsmanship, and time-honored cultivation.

Whether you’re enjoying a meditative tea ritual or hosting guests, this matcha brings the spirit of “ocha no ma” (tea gathering) into your everyday life.
