About This Tea
What does Uji Saemidori Matcha taste like?
This vibrant matcha offers a supremely creamy and silky texture, delivering a rich umami core. Sweet notes of malted milk and white chocolate intertwine with hints of toasted nuts and fresh green melo. It leans creamy, umami and fruity.
How should I brew Uji Saemidori 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.
Where does Uji Saemidori Matcha come from?
Grown in Kyoto, Japan from the Samidori cultivar. This batch is from the Spring 2025 harvest.
How much does Uji Saemidori Matcha cost?
Starts at $23.50 from Mei Leaf, or about $0.67/g. A 30g package gets you around 5 gongfu sessions at ~6 g each, which works out to about $3.99 per session. Explore more green teas on Teadar.
