Matcha Choan (20g tin)

Ceremonial Grade
Product code: CSTV-30

Our highest grade of ceremonial Matcha. Produced with such finesse it feels like 'drinking silk'. From a blend of three different cultivars expertly chosen and assembled by M. Koyama, its balance is very close to perfection.

Fresh and sweet as a pea pod, subtle notes of seaweed and butter make its profile extremely seductive. This is the Matcha to try for a truly sublime experience.

For greater freshness, the Matcha should be used within 6 months of opening and stored in a cool place.
