Samidori Matcha 30g (1.06 oz) Tin by Yamamasa Koyamaen – Premium Ceremonial Grade Uji Matcha from Kyoto | Creamy Sweetness, Low Bitterness, Fresh Green Aroma & Smooth Usucha

Samidori Matcha is a premium ceremonial-grade matcha produced by Yamamasa Koyamaen (山政小山園), a historic and highly respected tea company in Uji, Kyoto, with roots dating back to the early Edo period.

Named after the “Samidori” cultivar (early green), this single-varietal matcha is carefully stone-milled from first-harvest tencha grown in Uji’s prestigious tea fields. It is known for its approachable, creamy character with gentle sweetness, fresh green aroma, and very low bitterness, making it one of the most drinkable and versatile matchas in Yamamasa Koyamaen’s lineup.

☀️ What Is Samidori Matcha?

“Samidori” refers to the fresh, vibrant green of early spring. This Uji matcha embodies a refined balance that highlights the natural strengths of the Samidori cultivar — creamy texture, elegant umami, and a refreshing aroma with minimal astringency. It is ideal for both traditional thin tea (usucha) and modern uses, loved by beginners and connoisseurs alike for its smooth, comforting taste.

It features:

•  Bright, vivid green color

•  Creamy, mellow umami with gentle natural sweetness

•  Fresh, fragrant green aroma

•  Very low bitterness and smooth, silky texture

Its harmonious and easy-drinking profile makes it perfect for daily enjoyment.
