Naoki Matcha Superior Blend Ceremonial-Grade Matcha Powder 100g (3.5oz) — First-Harvest Uji Kyoto, Stone-Ground, 50 Servings

Naoki Matcha Superior Blend is a 100g tin of ceremonial-grade Japanese matcha made from first-harvest Uji Kyoto leaves, milled and sealed for freshness to deliver about 50 servings for tea, lattes, and recipes.

Harvested from shaded tea plants in Uji, Kyoto and stone-ground into fine powder just before export, this Superior Blend offers a balanced, smooth flavor profile suited to both newcomers and experienced matcha users. The larger 3.5 oz (100 g) package increases value and convenience, supplying roughly fifty 2-gram servings—enough for daily cups, creative drinks, and culinary use.

What does "ceremonial grade" mean for this Naoki Matcha?

In this product, ceremonial grade indicates leaves selected from the first harvest (tencha) and processed to preserve delicate flavor and color. The powder is stone-milled to a fine texture and kept airtight to maintain aroma and freshness until you open it.

• First-harvest Uji leaves chosen for flavour balance.
• Stone-ground fineness for smooth whisking and mouthfeel.
• Air-tight sealing in packets inside the tin for prolonged freshness.

How do I prepare Naoki Matcha for a classic cup or latte?

Use 1 teaspoon (about 2 grams) of matcha per serving: sift, whisk with hot water for traditional usucha, or blend with warmed milk for a creamy latte. Instructions and recipe ideas are provided so you can easily tailor strength and texture to your taste.

• Usucha (thin tea): 2 g matcha + 60–80 ml hot water, whisk briskly.
• Latte: 2 g matcha + 60 ml hot water, steamed or frothed milk added.
• Recipes: smoothies, baking, and desserts where matcha stands out.

What flavor and texture can I expect from this blend?

Naoki Matcha Superior Blend delivers a smooth, balanced umami with a subtle grassy note and a gentle hint of bitterness—designed to be approachable for beginners while satisfying more discerning palates. The fine powder dissolves evenly for a silky mouthfeel whether whisked or blended.

• Balanced umami body with mild astringency.
• Vivid green color from high-quality tencha leaves.
• Fine particle size for smooth, lump-free beverages.

How long will this 100g tin last and how should I store it?

The 100g tin contains about 50 servings at 2 grams each, so it lasts roughly one to two months with daily use. Keep the sealed packets inside the tin; store in a cool, dry place away from strong light and odors—refrigeration after opening can extend peak freshness.

• Approx. 50 servings per 100g tin (2 g per serving).
• Store away from heat, light, and moisture; reseal after use.
• Optional refrigeration recommended once opened for longer freshness.

Who this is for: Naoki Matcha Superior Blend is made for people who want authentic Uji matcha in larger, value-oriented packaging—perfect for daily drinkers, home baristas, and cooks using matcha as a key ingredient. If you’re just starting with ceremonial matcha or you already enjoy matcha lattes, smoothies, and baked goods, this 100g tin offers a versatile, high-quality powder to experiment with.
