Ruling from Kagoshima to Kyoto.
This vibrant green powder is composed of tender first flush Tencha leaves shade-grown for 20 days before harvest on the pristine slopes of the Kirishima volcanic mountain range in Makizono, Kagoshima. The young, tender leaves are steamed and dried immediately after harvest to maintain their freshness.
The next step is sorting and de-stemming, to obtain the raw material for Matcha called Tencha.
Then in Uji, Kyoko, tea master Koji Kagata traditionally stone ground the Tencha to obtain this organic Matcha. The careful blending of the Tencha leaves reveals a velvety jade liquor that will offer a deep and mellow Umami balanced with a delightful vegetal sweet flavour.
The Regal is labeled JAS Organic, which is the certification beholding the strictest standard of organic production in Japan.
