Experience the Depth and Aroma of Ise no Miya Matcha

Nestled in the heart of Sugamo, Yamaen has proudly launched its latest offering: Ise no Miya matcha sourced from the rich tea regions of Mie Prefecture. With over 60 years of tradition and excellence, Yamaen is committed to delivering an exceptional tea experience.

The Art of Matcha Production

Ise no Miya matcha is produced from meticulously selected leaves grown in the pure and pristine environment of Mie. Ground using traditional stone mills, this matcha captivates the senses with its smooth umami flavor and elegant aroma. This dedication to quality ensures each cup of Ise no Miya matcha transports drinkers to a tranquil moment of indulgence.

Matcha is essentially a finely ground powder derived from tencha, a type of tea that undergoes a specific cultivation process. The tencha leaves are shade-grown under cover to protect them from direct sunlight, which helps to enhance their flavor and nutrient profile. After careful hand-picking, the leaves are steamed to halt oxidation and then dried without the rolling process required for other teas.

After removing the stems and veins, only the leaf flesh is selected for grinding. The result is a delicate tencha that, when finely ground, produces a matcha with a soft aroma and rich flavor.

Crafting an Exceptional Tea Experience

Yamaen’s Ise no Miya matcha is renowned for its balanced and rich character. The unique flavor profile is a result of both the cultivation methods and the craftsmanship behind the grinding process. When prepared correctly, a bowl of this matcha can be an extraordinary retreat for the senses, perfect for both quiet moments alone or shared experiences with friends and family.
