Ochamura Suihou
Ochamura Suihou
Ochamura Suihou (翠宝) is a premium Japanese matcha crafted by Ochamura, known for producing cultivar-focused matcha with clear flavor expression. Positioned in the richer range of Ochamura’s lineup, Suihou delivers a composed balance of umami, sweetness, and light structure.
Suihou performs well as usucha (thin tea) for those who enjoy a more grounded cup, and it can also be prepared as koicha (thick tea) where its layered character becomes more pronounced. It is suited for drinkers who appreciate a traditional, structured matcha rather than a purely sweet-forward style.
