All in Subtlety

I ordered the tasting trio to discover new matcha. My first choice was Yabukita. I love its invigorating character and subtle flavor. I can't go without it in the morning. Thank you for taking us on a journey with each different matcha.

A matcha with character

I regularly switch between the matcha in the range offered by Kumiko Matcha. I like Yabukita for its straightforwardness and balance. It offers an elegant foam and its taste lingers long on the palate.

My favorite

I had the chance to try the Yabukita Matcha thanks to the samples of the 3 cultivars. Just wow, what a wonderful discovery, a true favorite!
It is by far my favorite, along with the ultra-premium organic. Its color is sublime, the foam is generous, and I don't detect any bitterness.

Consistently high-quality matcha

An exceptional organic matcha

With this new organic matcha from Japan, my goal is to introduce you to the pure Yabukita cultivar, with an exceptional level of quality and exceptional value for money.

As with any plant, the tea plant is made up of several varieties called cultivars or varietals. It is comparable to the world of wine with Chardonnay and Merlot grape varieties; or for fruit trees we have Gala, Granny Smith apples, etc.

Most matcha teas are blends or blends of multiple cultivars (often predominantly Yabukita) to achieve a consistent taste regardless of the harvest year. This is the case for our very popular and well-loved organic premium matcha tea.

Here we have a 2022 vintage single-cultivar Yabukita matcha, made from the highest-quality leaves from the unique "single origin" terroir of our partner farmer Nakai-san in Wazuka. It is very special to be able to taste the pure cultivar.

Cultivating organic tea plants to create super high-quality tencha and processing it into matcha are two different crafts that require skills and equipment that are completely different.

For the farmer who grows tea, the challenge is to care for their plants to achieve a high-quality harvest each season. Climatic conditions change every year; frost, insects, plant pruning, organic farming standards, setting up and managing shade before harvest, and the harvest itself are the challenges tea farmers face to produce a tencha of the highest quality.

For the producer the challenge is to take this harvest and transform it into a delicious matcha: sorting the leaves from the harvest by grade (or quality), removing impurities, separating the different parts of the leaf (the petiole or stem, the veins, and the lamina, meaning the "flesh" of the leaf - it is the most desirable part for the production of matcha green tea), then grinding into powder, maintaining the machines and equipment such as the granite mills that carry out these processes, and packaging into bags or boxes - all according to the specifications and high standards of organic farming certification.

That’s why many farmers work in long-term partnership with one or more producers who commit to buying the farmer’s harvests every year at guaranteed prices that are agreeable to both parties. In this arrangement, which benefits both the farmer and the producer, the producer generally receives the highest-quality harvest as a priority.

This is the case with this exceptional Yabukita matcha: the highest-quality tea plant leaves grown by our partner farmer Nakai-san and processed by our partner producer into an absolutely delicious and enchanting organic matcha.

Here are Nakai-san and me in his field, which is isolated in the mountains:

The producer of this organic Yabukita matcha is the one who has proven himself with our organic matcha Okumidori and Saemidori which are greatly appreciated by our community. If, like many, Saemidori or Okumidori is your favorite matcha, you'll love this Yabukita!

A container worthy of its contents

To do justice to these exceptional organic matcha, you need a container that lives up to the contents. That's why I asked my favorite tattoo artist Neco to draw the packaging illustrations so they would also be beautiful objects.

Neco is a Japanese tattoo artist who lives between Paris and Japan (she also says she is a cat):

The concept: Neco drew the illustration for this matcha with the transcendent aromas of this Yabukita cultivar in mind.

5g mini sachets available to hand out to friends

In addition to these 50g pouches, we also have in stock 5g mini-pouch formats. Perfect for hiking, travel, or sharing with friends to introduce them to authentic organic matcha from Japan.

Enjoy! 🙏 🍵

This Yabukita matcha is of such high quality that it will take you on a flavorful journey of umami notes. When opening the pouch, you are immediately struck by the aromatic richness that escapes from it.

During preparation, adding a thin stream of cold water releases powerful green notes. The tasting is silky and you find a liveliness brought by mineral notes, a slightly earthy universe, nutty flavors, which then give way to a sweet finish with red berry notes.

Usucha, koicha, and cold brew preparations

I recommend trying these 3 preparation methods:

  • to prepare a matcha tea usucha, use 1 to 2 grams of powder for 80mL of hot water at 70°C - this is the common matcha preparation and the one we enjoy most often
  • thick preparation koicha: use 4-5g for 30mL of water at 80°C
  • in summer, try a cold preparation cold brew: shake 1-2g with 250mL of cold water in a shaker, it's very refreshing and delicious
