      Cultivar

      In Japan, many tea cultivars are grown intricately to produce different kinds of Matcha. Analogically speaking, we have 7,500 varieties of apple worldwide but they are all apples.

      Similarly for the Japanese Matcha which has over 200 cultivars. Although all of them comes from Camiella Sinensis, each possesses special traits - resulting a unique taste profile.

      Okumidori Cultivar

      Naturally a late-maturity cultivar, Okumidori is harvested relatively late (8 days after Yabukita cultivar), producing a deep green leaf colour and unique aroma with refreshing and clean aftertaste.
