Taste Notes: Pistachio, Roasted Nut, Umami, Hint of Cacao Origin: Yame, Fukuoka, Japan Cultivar: Blend of Yabukita, Saemidori & Others Our matcha is nitrogen-flushed to protect it from oxidation and sealed in an airtight pull-ring tin, preserving its vibrant green colour, aroma and flavour. This method guarantees your matcha stays as fresh as the day it was harvested, so it's ready for you to enjoy at its peak. Romi Ceremonial Blend Matcha #01 is our signature and very first blend. A Gold Award Winner, this blend is made of first harvest Saemidori & Yabukita. These two cultivars are loved for their smooth umami and well-rounded character. Grown in the misty mountains of Yame, Japan, a region known for matcha with a unique flavour that sets it apart from the classic Uji profile, this tea is shaded for over 21 days to develop its deep umami (thanks, L-theanine) and natural sweetness. Our Romi Ceremonial Blend #01 offers a unique depth of flavour — nutty & complex but not too overpowering. Perfect for your morning ritual, afternoon pick-me-up, or whenever you need a little zen in your day. We like to think of it as cozy and a little dramatic — in the best way. Our matcha powder contains no nut allergens — just naturally nutty flavour notes.
