TASTING NOTES
Alfalfa | Basil | Butternut
 
YASU is a matcha that embodies everything we appreciate about Yame matcha. Delivering a refreshingly vibrant character with a velvety, gentle finish and a lingering toasty note, making it an exceptional choice for daily enjoyment.
 
Yame continues to be one of Japan’s premier regions for cultivating matcha. Nestled in the high mountains of Yame, the area is renowned for its nutrient-rich soil and high humidity, sustained by the nearby rivers.
 
Made from Japan’s most popular green tea cultivar yabukita, this matcha has a strong, deep flavour profile with notes of Alfalfa, Basil and Butternut.
This more intense profile has a gentle bitterness making it perfect to balance with the sweetness of milk for matcha latte. 
 
The natural creaminess, sweetness, and nutty flavor of YASU combines exceptionally well with milk.
