Savor the serene brilliance of genuine Kyoto tea craftsmanship. Curated by the historic tea master artisans at Kashima Chaho, "Seiun no Shiro" (meaning "White Clouds of a Clear Sky") is an exceptional, high-tier ceremonial matcha blend sourced from the most prestigious, mist-veiled estates in Uji, Kyoto. Cultivated using time-honored shaded techniques to maximize sweet amino acids and preserve its intense jade color, this exquisite powder is finely milled to deliver a beautifully structured aroma and an incredibly elegant flavor profile.

This special grade is presented in a minimalist, light-blocking 40g airtight freshness pouch. Designed for discerning tea enthusiasts who appreciate uncompromised clarity in their daily rituals, "Seiun no Shiro" captures a perfect sensory balance: it boasts the delicate, creamy sweetness and deep umami required for traditional tea bowl whisking (Usucha), while offering a clean, vibrant backbone that shines marvelously when prepared as a premium iced tea or a velvety cafe-style latte.

🥄 Traditional & Modern Preparation Guides

• 🍵 Traditional Thin Tea (Usucha): Sift about 1.5g to 2g (approx. 1 teaspoon) of matcha into a pre-warmed tea bowl. Pour in 70ml to 80ml of hot water (strictly cooled to around 80°C / 176°F). Whisk rapidly in an "M" or "W" motion using a bamboo whisk until a dense, velvety layer of creamy foam forms on top.

• 🥛 Artisanal Matcha Latte: Dissolve 2g of "Seiun no Shiro" with a small splash of hot water in your favorite mug to create a smooth, lump-free emerald paste. Pour in 150ml of warm, silky steamed milk (oat, almond, or dairy) and froth gently. Add a touch of honey or maple syrup if desired.

• ❄️ Crisp Shaker Iced Matcha: Pour 1.5g of powder into a shaker bottle with 180ml of chilled water and a few clean ice cubes. Shake vigorously for 10 to 15 seconds for an immediate, completely refreshing, clump-free iced green tea on the go.
