Kawaguchi Kinsuien "Yame Matcha" – 100% Pure, Premium Ceremonial Grade Oku-Yame Japanese Green Tea Powder from Fukuoka (30g / 1.06 oz Resealable Stand-Up Pouch)

Treat yourself to a blissful moment of pure serenity with Yame Matcha, curated by the multi-generational tea masters at Kawaguchi Kinsuien (Oku-Yame Tea). Nestled in the misty, high-altitude mountain valleys of Kurogi-machi in Yame City, Fukuoka Prefecture—a region world-renowned for producing Japan’s most luxurious, umami-rich green teas—this exquisite selection carries the evocative poetic description: "A blissful moment, a gentle mountain village flavor." Crafted from 100% pure, single-ingredient premium green tea leaves, it is meticulously stone-milled into a velvety, micro-fine powder that boasts a breathtaking jade color, a famously thick and savory sweet body, and an incredibly soothing, clean aroma with zero harsh bitterness.

Packaged in a sleek, minimalist 30g (1.06 oz) airtight stand-up pouch with a dark forest-themed artistic label, it is beautifully versatile. While smooth and rich enough for traditional chawan whisking, its highly concentrated sweetness makes it a spectacular base for crafting elite barista-quality lattes, wellness smoothies, or sophisticated home-baked desserts.

🎁 Important Note Regarding Packaging Presentation:

The sleek white stand-up pouch is finished with a beautifully stylized dark-green panoramic label and a metallic gold "Fukuoka Grown" stamp.

☀️ Why Choose Kawaguchi Kinsuien's Yame Matcha?

• Signature Yame Terroir Sweetness – Due to the heavy mountain mists and distinct temperature swings of Oku-Yame, this matcha is naturally packed with high levels of sweet amino acids (theanine), delivering a rich, creamy flavor without any sharp astringency.

• 100% Pure & Additive-Free – Absolutely no added sugars, no milk solids, no preservatives, and no artificial colorings. Just 100% pure, uncompromised stone-milled perfection from Fukuoka.

• Ideal 30g Freshness Volume – Perfectly portioned to ensure you enjoy the powder at its absolute peak of aromatic vitality and vibrant green color before any exposure to air.

Spoon Simple Preparation Guides

🍵 1. Traditional Hot Matcha:

• Sift 1.5g to 2g (approx. 1 teaspoon) of Yame Matcha into a pre-warmed tea bowl.

• Pour in 60ml to 80ml of hot water (strictly cooled to around 80°C / 176°F to protect the delicate, sweet taste notes from scalding).

• Whisk rapidly in an "M" or "W" motion using a bamboo whisk until a dense, velvety layer of light-green micro-foam covers the surface.

🥛 2. Premium Cafe-Style Matcha Latte:

• Mix 2g of powder with a small splash of warm water and stir well to create a silky, lump-free green paste.

• Pour in 150ml of warm frothed milk (oat milk complements the nutty sweetness of Yame tea wonderfully) or cold milk with ice cubes, and sweeten to taste.
