Chiran Matcha 100g (Kagoshima Japan) | Kisshomori

The Deep Soul of Kagoshima Matcha

Chiran Matcha (知覧抹茶) is grown in Kagoshima, Japan’s southernmost tea region — where fertile volcanic soil and warm ocean winds create a matcha with remarkable depth and clarity.

This particular blend, labeled “すごく濃い” (Very Rich), is crafted under the supervision of Tea Appraiser Rank 10 – Mori Hiroyuki (森裕之氏), one of Japan’s highest-certified tea masters.
The result is a matcha with powerful umami, gentle astringency, and a deep, resonant aroma that stays long after the final sip.

Taste & Experience

• Flavor: bold umami, light bitterness, and smooth finish

• Color: deep green, bright and dense foam

  Perfect for those who love strong Japanese matcha with character and authenticity.

How to Prepare

1. Sift 2g (½ tsp) of matcha into a bowl

2. Add 70ml hot water (80°C / 176°F)

3. Whisk briskly in a “W” motion until fine foam appears

4. Enjoy as usucha (light tea), or add milk for a deep matcha latte

Why Chiran Matcha

While Uji is known for its refinement, Chiran matcha from Kagoshima brings something unique — a stronger, fuller-bodied umami with natural sweetness.
It’s ideal for those who prefer intense, flavorful matcha — whether ceremonial, culinary, or latte-style.
