Cultivar: Yabukita
A distinctive matcha with nutty depth, a smoky undertone, and a pleasantly bitter edge. Our Yame-grown Yabukita offers slightly more bitterness than The Finest Matcha, our first-flush Kirari 31, giving The Matcha Standard its own recognizable character. Crafted for daily enjoyment without compromise, it reflects the exceptional craftsmanship and tradition that define authentic Yame matcha.
Japanese matcha from Yame, Fukuoka. “The Matcha Standard” is our own tier designation — not a commodity or culinary grade — offered in five formats.
