Description
Nishi-san’s Matcha Saemidori is a shade-grown Japanese green tea powder made from the Saemidori cultivar, known for producing particularly bright, vegetal notes. The leaves are stone-ground to a fine powder, preserving the full nutritional profile and creating the characteristic vivid green hue.
This batch showcases the complexity that comes from traditional matcha cultivation methods—the shading process concentrates chlorophyll and amino acids, resulting in a rich umami character and smooth sweetness. The aroma is notably fresh and herbaceous, with subtle grassy undertones.
Whisk with hot water (around 70°C) for a traditional preparation, or blend into smoothies and lattes. The balanced flavour profile makes it versatile enough to stand alone or complement light desserts.
