Senchoju SEIMI Matcha 100g - Uji Single Cultivar Matcha (Limited Release)

Refined. Smooth. Precisely balanced.

SEIMI matcha is a limited single cultivar Japanese matcha sourced from Uji, Kyoto — crafted to express the refined balance of the Okumidori leaf.

Not blended. Not amplified.
A clean and elegant expression of Uji matcha.

This matcha is designed for clarity and control — delivering a smooth, polished profile that sits between heavy ceremonial blends and lighter everyday matcha.

🌿 Cultivar Profile — Uji Okumidori

Okumidori is a premium Japanese tea cultivar valued for its smooth structure, deep green tone, and controlled umami.

In Japan, there are hundreds of tea cultivars, each with distinct characteristics. Okumidori is considered one of the more refined cultivars, often used in higher-quality matcha for its balance and composure.

In Uji-grown matcha, it typically presents:

🍃 Deep jade green color — slightly darker and stable
🌿 Soft, composed aroma with gentle vegetal notes
🍵 Refined balance between smoothness and clarity

It does not aim to be intense —
it aims to be precise.

🔹 Usucha (Recommended)
