{"product_id":"matcha-the-hare-ceremonial-green-tea-powder","title":"Matcha The Hare Ceremonial Green Tea Powder","description":"\u003cp\u003eMatcha The Hare is a finely stone-milled, first flush Japanese matcha crafted from a carefully balanced blend of Saemidori from Kagoshima and Yabukita from Shizuoka. Saemidori brings vivid green colour, gentle sweetness and soft umami, whilst Yabukita contributes freshness, structure and a clean, classic green tea character. Together they create a bright, smooth and beautifully balanced matcha with both depth and clarity.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAt its best, matcha is wonderfully refined: fresh, mellow, gently sweet and rich with umami. The Hare captures that sense of calm alertness—a vibrant cup with energy, poise and clarity.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe first flush tea leaves are shaded before harvest, then carefully processed into tencha and slowly stone-milled in Shizuoka by a fourth-generation Japanese tea manufacturer. This low-speed milling produces an exceptionally fine powder whilst preserving the colour, texture and delicate flavour of the leaf.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA refined drinking matcha for traditional preparation with water, or equally enjoyable iced or whisked into a latte. With matcha demand rising sharply, we have sourced a first flush Japanese matcha that offers genuine quality, clarity and value—tea we are genuinely proud to drink ourselves.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOrigin \u0026amp; cultivar: Kagoshima Saemidori • Shizuoka Yabukita\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHow to prepare: Sift 1g (approximately ¼ tsp) and add a little cold water to make a paste.
