About This Tea

This exquisite matcha from Tsuchiyama offers a remarkably dynamic flavor profile, showcasing the master blender's skill with the Okumidori cultivar. Expect delightful notes of sweet macadamia and appl. It leans nutty, fruity and sweet.
How should I brew Tsuchiyama Matcha?
Water around 70–80 °C (158–176 °F). In a mug, steep 2–3 min. For gongfu, use 3–5 g per 100 ml, 15–30 s steeps. You'll get to see how the flavor changes across multiple rounds. The biggest mistake with green tea is using boiling water. Keep it well below that and you won't get bitterness.

Grown in Shiga, Japan from the Okumidori cultivar. This batch is from the 2025 harvest.
How much does Tsuchiyama Matcha cost?
Starts at $38.00 from Kettl, or about $1.90/g. A 20g package gets you around 3 gongfu sessions at ~6 g each, which works out to about $11.40 per session. Explore more green teas on Teadar.
