A blend of two cultivars, Sayamamidori and Saemidori, this matcha is grown without using any of the pesticides or chemical fertilizers normally considered indispensable for matcha cultivation and flavor. With a brisk acidity reminiscent of citrus, it leaves you feeling refreshed. It is an ideal matcha for daily drinking. To preserve the delicate taste, store in the refrigerator and use within 2 weeks of opening.
