About Gyokuro Heaven
This heavenly set includes:
100g of Gyokuro, a uniquely Japanese tea, harvested by hand and, like matcha, grown under black netting for about three weeks prior to harvest. This "babying" treatment of shading the delicate leaves produces potent umami -- it's very dashi-like, and there is nothing quite like it.
Ellipses, A classic teapot from the Tokoname region of Aichi Prefecture and its 1,000-year history. Elegant yet sturdier than it looks. Makes the preparation and serving of gyokuro very special.
Noir and Pearly Gray cups - Made in the Mino-style of beautiful yet practical ceramics, in the small town of Taji, Aichi Prefecture, Japan. These two-toned cups are glazed on top only; the lower part is the raw earth-toned clay, giving them a soft and inviting touch.

About The Ethereal Trio
Blend Satoshi: This matcha is flawless. It's everything you want in a top-grade matcha: creamy, silky, graceful, not even a hint of bitterness. Wildly vibrant color looks photoshopped! Dominant aromas are raw sugar, rain-soaked young grass, and sweet peas. Umami on the back palate, almost meaty, grilled chanterelles. Such a long, sweet finish. You'll want to lick every last drop. Origin: Nishio, Aichi Prefecture (near Nagoya), Japan. Very pristine environment. The very best that Nishio produces.
Blend Hikari: Matcha of this extreme quality is exceedingly hard to produce and to procure, yet here it is, thanks to an obsessed grower who offered it to us.This matcha is pure pleasure -- it's like drinking light infused with chlorophyll. It bestows a brothy umami torrent that continues long after swallowing (up to several full minutes of finish), and its ultra-fine texture and overall quality mean that it whisks up into gorgeously thick clouds of emerald froth that remain in the tumbler long after the liquid is gone. Dominant aromas are freshly picked young peas, shiitake, and sweet cream. Silky as it gets. Its high levels of L-theanine and other amino acids snap the brain to attention, making it the perfect beverage for prolonged bouts of study, writing, or any other intellectual pursuit. Origin: From a truly talented matcha farmer near Byodoin Temple, Uji, Kyoto, Japan.
Blend Jizo: Dreamlike and rare, grown with the classic "honzu" method (shading the tea fields with reeds). Pronounced umami and a long, long finish. Quite chocolatey on first sip, followed by tastes of spring baby vegetables and fresh herbs. Each leaf is coddled and tended to, from first bud to ground matcha. As with all of our matcha, there is just one harvest a year, in early May, and all leaves are picked by hand. 100% stone ground. Naturally fertilized with ground sardine and herring. A true gem of a matcha, very difficult to find matcha of this quality. Origin: Gokasho (Uji, Kyoto).
Each blend size is 30g / 30 Servings and includes jar for each.

About The Coldbrew Collection
There’s nothing quite like coldbrew matcha on a hot day; it seems to go directly to the brain’s key satiation spots as it hits all the right notes for thirst quenching. Here are three quality matcha specially designed to drink icy cold.
Coldbrew Original: Umami galore makes this remarkable tea taste sweet. Has a creaminess that almost tastes milky, and, when properly prepared, creates a crema not unlike a Guinness draft. Has a long, beautiful finish. Produces a clean energy that leaves you feeling sated, your stomach feeling jubilant, and your brain feeling optimized. An incredible value for a really tasty matcha. From Uji, the Mecca of great matcha.
Coldbrew Organic: This is the most vibrant and alive organic coldbrew we've tasted. Grown and stone-milled in Kagoshima, Japan's semi-tropical deep south. Tastes like the smell of spring in Japan. Certified USDA Organic, also meets the much-stricter EU and Japan organic standards. Organic matcha doesn't get much better than this.
Coldbrew Reserve: Our most elegant coldbrew. Aromas of baby vegetables, pea tendrils, and young grasses. It has an ultra-fine, fluffy texture, heaps of chlorophyll, and its brothy umami comes out in full force, even at icy temperatures. An exceedingly smooth coldbrew matcha with a long, creamy finish that leaves the palate feeling silky and happy. From Uji, the birthplace of matcha in Japan.
About Deep Umami Trio
Blend 94: A feisty, gorgeous matcha that's ready to slap you with its attitude. Racy. Fantastic color, heady aromas, intense "matcha" taste (think strong green tea ice cream), faint twinges of bitterness and astringency (which gives it its sass). Plenty of umami and natural sweetness means it pairs beautifully with savory food.
Blend 97: The color is wildly vibrant. Mouth entry is wondrous and seamless. The tea is sweet, with almost no trace of bitterness (this is rare in the matcha world). Clean, with just the right amount of earthiness. Makes crema that's rich, thick, and delightful. A pure joy to sip.
Blend Rikyu: This tea, whipped up thick, seems to send memory into overdrive; into a contemplative state. We think Sen No Rikyu, the most masterful and original matcha connoisseur in Japan's very long history of tea, would have marveled at its rich, umami-laden flavor, brilliant color, and ridiculously long finish.
Each blend size is 30g / 30 Servings and includes jar for each.
