DESCRIPTION
Ichiyo Raifuku features Okumidori cultivar, grown in Kikugawa, Shizuoka. Okumidori has notably high chlorophyll content, which results in an impressive emerald green color. The tea is grown in a single estate and shaded for 40 days before it is first picked in the spring, the first harvest of the year, which yields the best quality of matcha. Okumidori is very notable in its chlorophyll content which results in emerald green color. It has a light floral aroma, with a little bit of toasted bread, and a medium body. It is an everyday go-to matcha.
Our single estate matcha tea leaves are picked, stone ground to a very fine size of 5 – 7 microns, and packed in Japan.
