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.

Delicious. This is my 12 year old’s favorite tea. Will be ordering a larger quantity next time!
I’m not saying that the creator of Earl Grey Matcha should win the Nobel Peace Prize. However, if humankind simultaneously prepared and savored just 8 hot ounces of this decadent yet bold blend, I do believe wars would cease and we would all become one beloved family. Am I exaggerating? Maybe. Maybe not. Is the caffeine clouding my judgement? Maybe. Maybe not. Is this the best Earl Grey I’ve ever tasted in all my years on this blue marble? Unequivocally, Yes. If you want to tiptoe through the tulips, this is not the blend for you. If you want take the bull by horns, kiss him on the mouth, then slap his ass and go on your merry freaking way—Earl Grey Matcha is the tea for you. For me. For us. (Back up! I’m not sharing! Ok so, maybe not world peace. But this ish is goooooood!)
Amazing!
