Marukyu Koyamaen Hatsu Kaori 初薰 Matcha (Summer Limited Edition)
This is a pre-order item with estimated shipping by late May. Orders containing this item may ship once all items are available.
Marukyu Koyamaen Hatsu Kaori 初薰 is a superior grade shin matcha made from the freshest round of May harvest. As a summer limited edition release, it offers a rare chance to experience shin matcha, a style that requires tea makers to harvest, process, and release the tea on an especially tight seasonal timeline.
Freshly picked leaves are quickly brought in for processing, where strong steam halts oxidation and helps preserve the vivid qualities of new tea. The leaves are then dried into ara-tencha and stored under refrigeration before final refinement. This time-sensitive process is one reason shin matcha remains a rare seasonal release, even among respected producers.
Why It Stands Out
- Superior grade shin matcha
- Made from the freshest May harvest
- Quickly processed to preserve new-tea character
- Refrigerated as ara-tencha before final refinement
- A rare seasonal release for drinkers who enjoy vivid structure and freshness
