A rare matcha shaped by the terroir of coastal Kyushu. From the serene valleys of Higashi-Sonogi in Nagasaki, this Limited Reserve matcha is crafted from the prized Samidori cultivar, known for its natural sweetness and velvety depth. Shaded beneath traditional warakake straw for over three weeks, the leaves develop a layered umami before being gently finished with Nagasaki’s signature roast. Stone-ground in small batches, the result is a vibrant ceremonial matcha with creamy texture, soft sweetness, and delicate nutty-floral notes. Produced in limited quantities each year — only 6,666 cans — this reserve captures the quiet elegance and craftsmanship of Sonogi’s renowned tea tradition. + Cra
