As Japanese tea specialists in Kyoto since 1717, we produce over 10 regular blends of matcha, each with its own character. But, if you heard about us recently on TikTok, Instagram, Reddit, or from a certain famous newspaper from New York, one of these three matchas was likely the one being talked about. See what the hype is about with this limited bundle.

In the bundle:

Ummon – a powerful, complex blend. One of our highest-ranking matchas for decades. In a latte, Ummon feels rich and almost buttery. On its own, it’s punchy and eye-opening from the first sip.

Horai – Smooth but complex; full-bodied but easy-to-drink: there’s a reason why Horai is the matcha we recommend trying first among our 10 blends. In a latte, it’s creamy and rich with a beautiful green color. On its own, it has plenty of the natural sweetness and earthiness with a tinge of refreshing astringency. The Horai blend is named Sayaka in the larger 40g and 100g sizes.

Ikuyo – Medium-bodied, and balanced. Ikuyo is our first recommendation for a matcha latte since its crisp astringency pairs well with the sweet creaminess of the milk. On its own, you’ll find it lighthearted and easy to drink every day.

Note: Serve these matchas side-by-side for a comparison, or enjoy each one at a time. When serving guests, our Tea Bowl with Spout - White (Mino-yaki) is convenient for whisking a large batch of matcha to pour into cups.
