Kagoshima Saemidori First Flush Matcha
Experience premium Japanese matcha from the lush tea fields of Kagoshima, Japan. Crafted exclusively from first-flush Saemidori tea leaves, this single-cultivar matcha is celebrated for its vibrant green color, natural sweetness, and rich umami flavor.
Harvested during the first flush of spring, when tea leaves are young and tender, this premium matcha delivers a beautifully smooth, creamy texture with delicate nutty notes and gentle astringency. Its naturally balanced flavor makes it perfect for traditional matcha preparation, hot or iced matcha lattes, or enjoying on its own.
The aroma opens with notes of milk chocolate and savory undertones, followed by hints of buttery crackers. Each sip reveals a rich, velvety body with deep umami, subtle sweetness, and a comforting nuttiness reminiscent of cashews and almonds. A delicate touch of bitterness creates a clean, balanced finish.

I drink this tea iced and love that it has both a rich Hazelnut flavor paired with a lovely slightly sweet vanilla taste. You will love it.
My all time favorite tea! Cozy for any time of year
Knowing how special is Imperial Keemun Mao Feng tea, I will give it as a gift.
Green tea is not my favorite but w the peach apricot flavor it was doable.
Love the peach apricot flavor!!
