The Hana Blend is a high-grade matcha picked from the virgin leaves of shade-grown tea trees during the first harvest of spring. It is stone-milled using traditional methods in Uji, Kyoto - the birthplace of matcha.
Hana Blend is a mellow, subtle but complex matcha. When you take the first sip of this bright green uji matcha, it moves through you slowly like the gentle fragrance of a blossom just opening in the morning light. The initial taste fades almost immediately, leaving behind a soft sweetness that lingers softly on your palate. The name "Hana" encapsulates the tasting notes of this signature matcha.
