Yabukita Single Cultivar Matcha – First Harvest Japanese Green Tea, 30g

Yabukita is Japan’s best-loved tea cultivar, and this single-cultivar matcha shows why: shade-grown, first-harvest leaves stone-ground into a bold, smooth powder with a clean, sweet finish. It’s the everyday matcha Isshiki’s New York café is built on.

Why Yabukita Matcha?

• First-harvest quality: made only from first-flush Yabukita leaves, prized for balanced flavor
• Classic flavor: fresh, grassy aroma with subtle sweetness and a light, natural astringency
• Versatile: great whisked straight, in a matcha latte, smoothies or desserts

Crafted with care: the tea plants are shaded before harvest to deepen their color, then each batch is stone-ground into a silky powder that dissolves easily.

How to Prepare

Sift 1–2 g (about ½ tsp) of matcha into a bowl, add 70 ml (2.5 oz) of water at 170–175°F, and whisk briskly in a zigzag motion with a bamboo chasen for 15–20 seconds until frothy. For a latte, top with 6–8 oz of steamed or iced milk. Store sealed in the refrigerator after opening.

30g tin, 20–30 servings.
