Marukyu Koyamaen Chigi no Shiro – Smooth, Elegant Uji Matcha with Gentle Umami and Clean Sweetness

Chigi no Shiro is a refined Japanese matcha crafted by Marukyu Koyamaen, a historic tea house based in Uji, Kyoto. This matcha is known for its clean profile, gentle umami, and balanced sweetness, making it an approachable yet high-quality option for daily matcha enjoyment.

When whisked, Chigi no Shiro presents a fresh green aroma with soft vegetal notes. The flavor is smooth and well-balanced, offering mild umami supported by light natural sweetness and very low bitterness. The texture is soft and easy on the palate, with a clean, refreshing finish that does not linger heavily.

Chigi no Shiro is especially well suited for usucha (thin tea) and is an excellent choice for those who prefer a lighter, elegant style of Uji matcha. Its clarity and smoothness also make it suitable for regular matcha routines and simple pairings with light sweets.
