Wako Uji Matcha is a Japanese matcha green tea powder made from domestically grown Japanese green tea and packaged in a traditional matcha tin. The elegant white box and canister feature Japanese calligraphy, a gold brush-circle design, and a deep green lid, giving the product a refined Kyoto-style presentation.
This matcha is smooth, finely ground, and easy to prepare as a traditional bowl of matcha, matcha latte, iced matcha, or for light culinary use. Compared with regular loose leaf green tea, matcha is consumed as a whole powdered tea, giving it a fuller texture, vivid green color, and a deeper green tea character.
The flavor is fresh and grassy with gentle umami, light natural bitterness, and a clean finish. It is a great choice for customers who want an approachable Japanese matcha for daily drinking, latte preparation, or exploring traditional Japanese tea culture.
