Matcha Uji — Camellia Sinensis, 40g Tin

This is Camellia Sinensis's matcha uji in a 40g tin — the same delicate, refined matcha from Uji, Kyoto, in a smaller size and a keepable canister.

We carry it as the easier way to try this lovely matcha — a 40g tin is a gentler first step than the full pouch, and the tin earns a place on your shelf afterward.

Good for

• Trying camellia sinensis's uji matcha without committing to the large pouch

• Drinkers who like a keepable tin

• A refined, whisked bowl

A Sensory Tasting Experience

When whisked, this matcha yields a vibrant, velvety emulsion that glides smoothly across the palate. The flavor profile is a masterful dance of contrasts:

• A delicate bitter-sweet harmony with a rich, creamy texture.

• Crisp, refreshing undertones reminiscent of dewy grass and sweet snow peas.

• A subtle, lingering touch of ocean iodine that beautifully rounds out the finish, leaving a clean and memorable aftertaste.

Artisanal Craftsmanship

• First Harvest: Crafted exclusively from the highly anticipated first flush of spring, when the leaves are densest in nutrients and natural sweetness.

• Shade-Grown & Stone-Ground: Shaded traditionally before harvest to boost chlorophyll and L-theanine, then slowly stone-ground to preserve its brilliant emerald color and delicate aromas.
