Kiwami Single Garden Matcha

Variant

From the famed fields of Shinya Yamaguchi in Hoshinomura, Kiwami Single Garden represents the true pinnacle of Yame Matcha. This offering is made from select tencha leaves that are hand-harvested from a single plot on the Yamaguchi family property after a full month of shading. Kiwami Single Garden is not a production release and is only available to purchase when offered by the family. Our 15+ year relationship with Shinya Yamaguchi has yielded some of the most celebrated teas in the Kettl catalog, and it is a supreme honor to make this extremely limited allotment of Single Garden available to our customers. This tea will not be restocked, making this the only chance to try what can only be described as an otherworldly offering.

A refined cacao aroma greets you upon opening the can. After whisking, notes of honeyed bread, pistachio, and a profound umami await. Kiwami Single Garden possesses an ethereal texture, harmonious flavor, and zero astringency—truly a work of art.
 
This tea is packed in Shinya Yamaguchi's house packaging. Limit 5 tins per customer.
