Leaf to cup
Follow the matcha from its Uji fields through first harvest, tencha, stone milling, and the finished ritual.
The story begins in Uji, Kyoto Prefecture—one of Japan’s most respected tea regions.
Tender spring leaves are selected for vivid colour, sweetness, and soft umami.
The shaded leaves are steamed, dried, and refined into tencha before milling.
Tencha is slowly stone-milled into an exceptionally fine powder.
Warm water and a whisk reveal the vivid colour, creamy texture, and clean finish.
Taste profile
The color should feel alive before the water touches it. Kiyori is built around the full drinking experience: aroma, texture, umami, and the feeling after the first sip.
