Biwa no Shiro (琵琶の白), meaning “White of the Lute,” is a refined ceremonial-grade matcha from Kanbayashi Shunsho Honten, one of the oldest and most esteemed tea houses in Uji, Kyoto, with a heritage stretching back over 450 years. This blend evokes elegance, subtlety, and quiet strength—hallmarks of the Kanbayashi tradition. Biwa no Shiro opens with a gentle sweetness and mild umami, followed by delicate vegetal notes and a soft, creamy texture. Its pale yet vibrant green color and silky froth reflect its meticulous stone-milling and freshness. The name suggests the quiet resonance of a lute—graceful, clear, and understated—making this matcha ideal for tea ceremony practitioners and those seeking a serene, well-balanced cup.
