Kasumi meaning "mist" takes its name from the smoky and nutty tasting profile of this matcha where the strong Yame tea leaves are roasted at a higher temperature.
Its nuttier warmth and subtle smokiness give it a grounded, almost toasty depth that doesn’t get lost in a latte. Drunk as usucha, those same notes soften but stay present, unfolding as a rich, earthy greenness with a gentle, lingering smokiness that feels both comforting and bold.
Kasumi is made in small batches with deep care in Yame in the south of Japan. Farmers put great care and attention to detail into developing this matcha.
