Yasuharu Maeno is the current head of Maruyasu, a tea producer in Shiga, just east of Kyoto, that first opened its doors over 140 years ago in 1872. Maeno-san is a level-9 Chashi, making him one of the most esteemed and respected tea blenders in the country, and we are honored to serve as stewards of his teas. Made from a blend of Asahi, Saemidori, Okumidori—three of our favorite cultivars—Kasumi is an exquisite koicha grade matcha with a rich profile and creamy profile. An immersive experience that continues with every sip.
