This original Sa-lon blend matcha is created in collaboration with Marukyu Koyamaen, a venerable tea garden in Kyoto's Uji district with a history stretching back to the Edo period.

We've crafted a flavour that captures matcha's authentic character – that distinctive delicate, crumbling mouthfeel with pleasant bitter undertones. The clean, refined umami makes it delicious enjoyed on its own, whilst pairing beautifully with sweet confections.

At Sa-lon, we recommend this matcha for usucha (thin tea) preparation.

Mukashi - Delicately Crumbling Texture with Pleasant Bitter Notes.

Shiro - A well-balanced flavour with sweetness and gentle bitterness.

Midori - A rich flavour with distinct umami and sweetness
