We are honored to present a curated selection of matcha from the esteemed Yamamasa Koyamaen, a distinguished tea maker based in Uji. The roots of Yamamasa Koyamaen trace back to the early 1600s, when the Koyama family began cultivating and producing tea in the Uji region. Since then, they have spent centuries perfecting the art of Uji tea production. Ryokka is a rich and bold Matcha, meticulously selected from the very finest of this year’s harvest. With a complex and sophisticated profile, it captivates with its gentle, rounded sweetness and a delicate white sesame–like aroma — a harmony of depth and elegance.
