Marukyu Koyamaen Matcha - Shoka no Mukashi Ceremonial Japanese Matcha Powder

Marukyu Koyamaen Matcha – Shōka no Mukashi 40g

Ceremonial Grade Japanese Matcha Powder

Experience the refined artistry of Japanese tea with Shōka no Mukashi, a ceremonial-grade matcha crafted by Marukyu Koyamaen, a venerable tea producer from Uji, Kyoto, with a legacy spanning over 300 years. This matcha is esteemed within the Urasenke school of tea, personally selected by its grand master, Zabōsai, for formal tea gatherings. 

Flavour Profile

Shōka no Mukashi offers a mild, light, and sweet flavour with a gently dissipating finish. Its elegant richness and vivid green colour make it particularly suitable for koicha (thick tea), providing a contemplative and refined tea experience. 

Aroma & Texture

This matcha exudes a fresh and pleasant aroma, which, upon whisking, transforms into a more pronounced fragrance with hints of fresh grass and a touch of nuttiness. Its silky texture is achieved through traditional stone milling, ensuring a smooth and frothy brew.

Versatile Applications

While traditionally prepared as koicha, Shōka no Mukashi's balanced flavour profile also makes it suitable for usucha (thin tea) and matcha lattes, where its bold flavour holds its own beautifully when combined with milk.
