Produced by Hoshino Seichaen in the mountainous village of Hoshino, Yame — home to a tea master with over 70 years of expertise. This tin offers an exceptional ceremonial grade matcha, crafted from carefully shaded, hand picked tencha leaves.

Seiho Matcha opens with a creamy umami richness, followed by a gentle sweetness and a lingering, mellow finish. Layered notes of roasted sesame, nori, and a whisper of smoke give way to a lingering, dark chocolate depth.
