Kiwami Single Cultivar Matcha

By Matchaful

Their highest grade of matcha, the word Kiwami translates to “ultimate” or “extreme.” Displaying a balanced umami flavor, Kiwami presents tasting notes of florals, honey, and cream, a refreshing fragrance, and a hint of natural sweetness.

Sustainably grown in the hills of Shizuoka, Japan, this unique tea is carefully crafted from hand-picked tea leaves of a single cultivar (this makes Kiwami rare, as most matcha is made using a blend of cultivars from multiple farms in order to achieve the desired balanced taste).
