Hachi Matcha - Organic
Hachi Matcha Organic
A distinctive organic matcha from Uji, Kyoto, made using traditional growing methods.
Our Organic Matcha is cultivated without synthetic pesticides and uses traditional reed-and-straw covering during the final shade-growing stage. The result is an earthy, balanced matcha with gentle vegetal notes and a slightly astringent finish.
Region: Uji, Kyoto, Japan
Best for:
Straight matcha, traditional preparation and anyone looking for an organic option with a more earthy, old-style flavour profile.
How to prepare traditional matcha:
Sift ½–1 teaspoon of Organic Hachi Matcha into a small bowl. Add 2–4 oz of water at approximately 70–80°C. Whisk vigorously for about 15 seconds until smooth and lightly frothy.
For a matcha latte:
Whisk 1 teaspoon of sifted matcha with about 1 oz of 70–80°C water, then add steamed milk.
