AYUMI matcha 40g

We are proud to present this deeply expressive and characterful matcha from Kyotango in northern Kyoto, crafted primarily from the Okumidori cultivar and shaded for over three weeks before being carefully stone-milled into an exceptionally fine powder by our long-time partners in Uji. 
 
Ayumi opens with a savory and layered aromatic profile: steamed sweet snap pea and buttered roasted broccoli notes rise first from the bowl, followed by a roasted sunflower seed richness. A gentle floral lift brings elegance and lightness to the deeper green and nutty character. The texture is velvety and creamy, with a savory umami backbone balanced by soft tannins and gentle bitters that keep things grounded and structured. The finish is slightly herbaceous, lightly drying, and reminiscent of a blooming spring meadow. Ayumi’s pronounced nuttiness and clean savory profile make it especially compelling for premium milk-based preparation, while remaining deeply satisfying prepared pure as usucha.
