SO MATCHA SAMIDORI（さみどり）Competition · Single Cultivar

Representing the highest expression of Samidori from Kumiyama, Kyoto, this single-origin, single-cultivar matcha originates from an award-winning tea estate with more than three centuries of tea-growing heritage.

Cultivated under traditional double-layer shading and carefully hand-picked during the first spring harvest, the leaves preserve the cultivar’s purity while revealing extraordinary depth, sweetness, and precision.

Stone-milled in small batches, the tea delivers remarkable concentration while maintaining exceptional clarity and refinement.

Layers of kombu dashi, roasted macadamia, and cacao nibs unfold with profound umami and a silky texture. Elegant and remarkably precise, the profile evolves seamlessly from the first sip to an exceptionally long and persistent finish.
