 Description

Clean · Bright · Classic Kyoto Matcha

Matsukaze (松風), meaning “Pine Breeze,” is a classic matcha from Yamamasa Koyamaen, appreciated for its clarity, balance, and refreshing character.

Compared to deeper, umami-heavy matchas, Matsukaze offers a lighter, brighter expression — smooth on the palate with minimal bitterness and a clean finish.

This makes it an excellent choice for daily matcha drinkers who prefer freshness and ease over intensity.

The 100g size is ideal for regular preparation at home, whether whisked traditionally or enjoyed as a refined latte.
