Matcha Samidori organic 50g

Samidori is one of the most famous and oldest tea plant varieties in Japan and is primarily used to produce very high-quality matcha tea. It originated in the Uji region in Kyoto, which is the historic and most renowned area for producing matcha worldwide. The Samidori variety accounts for only 4% of production compared to other matcha varieties, with Yabukita being the highest in Japan at over 73%. This makes the Samidori variety rare in Japan and more desirable both domestically and internationally. It is highly sought after by matcha enthusiasts for its unique properties. This strain is distinguished by characteristics that make it the first choice for luxurious celebratory grades, rich in umami flavor with a clear natural sweetness. - Mr. Yushinori Nakanishi - The place of cultivation and production of the matcha powder is the most important factor when choosing its source. Mr. Yushinori Nakanishi’s production center is located in Japan, specifically in Kagoshima. This vibrant city and prefecture are located in southern Japan and are among the most important tea-growing regions in the country, thanks to their warm climate and fertile volcanic soil. The region produces types of tea known for their delicate flavors and fragrant aroma. Kagoshima is home to eleven active volcanoes, and these volcanic materials give Kagoshima rich, nutrient-filled soil. The minerals in the volcanic ash contribute to forming fertile soil rich in iron, magnesium, and potassium, which helps produce the finest organic matcha and green tea. The ideal conditions in this region allow tea leaves to develop richness and depth of flavor, making Kagoshima matcha an excellent choice for those seeking a refined and strong taste simultaneously. Mr. Yushinori Nakanishi’s distinction is not only as the best organic matcha farmer in Japan and renowned for his exceptional quality but also as a true pioneer of organic farming in Kagoshima. Since the 1980s, he has been growing tea without using chemical pesticides or artificial fertilizers, preserving the purity and full health benefits of the product. He has held an organic farming certification for over 25 years. Mr. Nakanishi achieved a rare accomplishment by producing unmatched organic matcha, thanks to his meticulous precision and attention to detail. His shading system is divided into three overlapping layers, each with different light permeability, allowing him to precisely control the shading intensity according to the plants’ needs and weather conditions, making fine adjustments daily, fifty days before harvest. The tea plants are carefully shaded, imparting the matcha with an unparalleled sweetness and rich flavor. In 1992, Nakanishi’s tea received the prestigious Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries Award, the highest award a tea farmer in Japan can achieve. The Matcha Ceremony team continuously dedicates efforts to provide a different and exceptional experience by offering a single-origin matcha made from one tea leaf and from one farm and region. While most market matcha is blended from multiple farms and regions, single-origin matcha is relatively rare and available in very limited quantities.
