Matcha Tsubasa
A commercial-grade Uji-based matcha designed for versatility and high-performance. Tsubasa combines robust flavor with exceptional stability, staying bright through intense baking and complex mixing. The toasty-grassy profile provides enough intensity to shine in professional preparations while remaining balanced enough to enjoy in a simple preparation when made at home.
| Origin | Uji, Japan |
|---|---|
| Harvest | Second Flush Tencha (Nibancha) |
| Processing | 25 days shade, Bead-milled |
| Character | Vivid green color with a robust grassy body and roasted-nut undertones. Toasty, grounded, and full-bodied with excellent color stability.
