Yabukita First – 2026 Vintage 1 kg

Yabukita Matcha is a refined expression of Japan’s most beloved tea cultivar, transformed into matcha with clarity, balance, and quiet depth. Known for its clean character and graceful structure, Yabukita reveals a vivid green powder that speaks of careful cultivation, freshness, and attentive processing. Its aroma is gentle yet distinctive—fresh leafy notes, subtle sweetness, and a soft vegetal brightness unfolding in a calm, elegant manner.

On the palate, this matcha offers a beautifully balanced profile: smooth umami, mild natural sweetness, and a pleasant hint of refined bitterness that gives the tea depth and definition. The finish is clean and refreshing, leaving a lingering impression of freshly steamed tea leaves and early-season greenery.

Versatile and approachable, Yabukita performs exceptionally well as usucha, where its clean aroma and balanced taste can be fully appreciated. It also brings a sophisticated Japanese tea character to lattes, desserts, baked goods, and culinary applications that require both authenticity and freshness. A classic cultivar, expressed with precision - Yabukita Matcha offers quiet elegance, reliable quality, and a beautifully balanced taste experience.
