"Matcha Velvet 7" is a new, exclusive line of single origin, single cultivar shincha (new harvest) matcha from Yame, Fukuoka. This series is a rare opportunity to taste matcha from the famous Yame region in its most pristine state: freshly harvested, direct from the grower, and unblended.

A paradoxical matcha, Saeakari opens light and closes rich! It has a soothing toasted quality to it, like genmaicha, that deepens into a nutty sweetness as its flavour intensifies. This matcha takes us on such a journey we had to make two tasting charts for it: one for its beginning, and one for its finish.

Smell: toasted grain, soba cha
Colour: fern green
Taste: popcorn, walnut skin finish, bewildering … light opening, but a rich finish

We Recommend

Whisk the matcha with hot water, then add cold milk (we prefer neutral oat milk with no added sugar or oils). This is the best temperature to taste matcha. No ice needed, as it dilutes the flavour. Enjoy!
