Five single-producer matcha,
one tea region. 抹茶ラインナップ　2026年産

From Sugayamaen in the Makinohara plateau — one of Japan’s largest and most respected tea regions. This carefully composed blend delivers a bright, clean profile with reliable consistency. An ideal entry point for first-time buyers, or a dependable workhorse for café programs seeking authentic Japanese matcha without the premium tier price.

From Maruo Seicha — a two-time Platinum Award winner at the Japan Tea Awards (sencha category). Sakimidori is a distinctive cultivar prized for its gentle sweetness and silky mouthfeel. The combination of a single estate, a single cultivar, and a celebrated producer makes this a rare and compelling offering for specialty tea merchants.

From the hillsides of Okabe — a region known for its refined, elegant tencha. What sets this selection apart is the use of traditional brick-kiln drying, which imparts a distinctive depth of aroma and a clean, structured umami. The only lot in this lineup with EU pesticide compliance available, opening wider export possibilities.

Ikeda-en holds three Platinum Awards at the Japan Tea Awards (sencha division) — two in deep-steamed and one in second-flush categories. Few single-producer estates in Japan can match this recognition. Their Yabukita tencha translates this exceptional cultivation expertise into a pure, profoundly umami-rich matcha with a brilliant green color. A standout for premium positioning in discerning markets.

The pinnacle of our lineup. Produced by the same Platinum Award-winning hands as our Sakimidori, this Tsuyuhikari offers a deeper, more concentrated umami and an exceptionally long finish. Tsuyuhikari is a rare cultivar, and its combination with Maruo Seicha’s celebrated craft results in a matcha of singular presence — suited to the most discerning specialty cafés and premium tea experiences.
