Who is David’s Tea?

David’s Tea is a Toronto tea company offering ceremonial matcha from Nishio, Aichi Prefecture and Kyushu Island. Its matcha uses fine tencha leaves, selected for naturally sweet umami and processed for smooth texture.

Its Ceremonial Grade uses youngest, tender leaves, while premium and culinary grades use progressively older leaves. Producers shade-grow tencha, flash-steam leaves, remove veins and stems, then slow stone-grind powder to limit heat and protect aroma.

Organic Nishio ceremonial matcha for straight servings with sweet creamy notes

DAVIDsTEA Organic Ceremonial Matcha Tea Printed Tin contains stone-ground, 100% organic matcha from Nishio, Japan. Made from tencha leaves with the veins and stems removed, it has a fresh aroma, a velvety-smooth mouthfeel, and sweet, creamy notes compared to whipped butter. Matcha astringency keeps the profile balanced rather than overtly sweet.

What does this Nishio ceremonial matcha taste like?

The flavor combines natural sweetness and creaminess with the astringent character of matcha. Its sweetness setting is Not Sweet, while the tasting notes focus on a fresh aroma and creamy, whipped-butter-like qualities. The smooth texture and balanced profile suit hot or iced matcha, including cups prepared to drink straight.

Nishio has an 800-year reputation for matcha production. This powder is stone-ground from tencha, the leaf material used to make matcha, after the veins and stems have been removed.
