Yamamasa Koyamaen Hatsumukashi – Ceremonial Matcha of Refined Depth from Uji, Kyoto

Elegant, balanced, and deeply traditional — Yamamasa Koyamaen Hatsumukashi is a premium ceremonial-grade matcha that captures the artistry of Uji, Kyoto, Japan’s most renowned tea region. Produced by Yamamasa Koyamaen, one of Japan’s oldest and most respected tea houses (est. 1861), Hatsumukashi represents the harmony between richness and refinement.

Crafted from carefully shade-grown Uji tencha leaves, this matcha is stone-ground in small batches to preserve its vivid color, freshness, and aromatic complexity. The result is a cup that’s smooth, vibrant, and elegant — ideal for usucha (thin tea) preparation.

Tasting Profile

  • Aroma: Fresh and floral with notes of spring grass and sweet bean

  • Flavor: Smooth, clean, and sophisticated; rich green flavor without harsh bitterness

  • Umami Level: Medium – gentle and well-integrated, adding body without heaviness

  • Bitterness: Very low – balanced and refined, enhancing depth

  • Texture: Fine, creamy froth with a velvety, round mouthfeel
