Cultivar: Yabukita
Region: Yame, Fukuoka
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 high temperature.
Kasumi works well in matcha lattes because its bold flavour cuts through the milk effectively, it can also be drunk on its own Usucha (thin tea).
Kasumi hails from a southern region of Japan known as Fukuoka where it is grown amidst the misty mountain air. It is made up of the Yabukita cultivar which generally is well-balanced between umami, sweetness astringency and bitterness. This particularly variety is unique due to the terroir and production process which contribute to a particularly nutty and umami flavour. It also has a wonderful appearance.
