Each year offers different nuances, allowing you to savor the fruit of the growers' efforts.

Okumidori is a prized Japanese tea variety, beloved for its natural sweetness, rich flavor, and intense emerald green color. It is particularly well-suited for the production of gyokuro and matcha. Born from a cross between Japan's most common variety, Yabukita , and a native Shizuoka variety, Okumidori has captured the hearts of connoisseurs for its smooth, slightly bitter, and umami-rich profile.

Thanks to its high cold resistance, it is cultivated in various areas of Japan, including Shizuoka. It is ideal for those seeking a delicate yet profound matcha, perfect for both those approaching Japanese tea for the first time and those who appreciate its most elegant nuances.

With its round flavor and beautiful appearance, Okumidori is a choice that enriches your daily break with authenticity and harmony.

How to prepare the Ceremonial Matcha Mt Fuji Okumidori

Usucha Preparation (light tea):

3. Mix using a chasen (bamboo whisk), first quickly and vigorously, then slowly until a foam with small bubbles is obtained.

Preparation with cold water is also possible; the procedure is the same.

Before the first step, we recommend warming the bowl by pouring hot water into it, then removing the water and drying the bowl with a cloth or napkin.

We also recommend sifting the matcha powder with a sieve, because without this step, clumps may form when water is added.

To preserve freshness, we recommend that once the matcha bag has been opened, it should be sealed tightly and stored in a cool, dry place (out of the refrigerator), away from direct sunlight.

To preserve freshness, once opened, consume within one month.

For storage, the unopened and sealed package should be kept in a cool place, such as the refrigerator, for up to about 6 months.
