Harney & Sons positions Unjonotomo Ceremonial Matcha (Extra Thick Grade) as its highest ceremonial grade. This pure green tea powder comes from the banks of the Uji River in Japan and is sold in a 30 g tin.

### Origin and production

According to Harney & Sons, the tea plants are deeply shaded and their young leaves are hand-picked once a season. The tencha is air-dried and ground using traditional stone mills. The stated ingredient is green tea, with no added flavoring listed.

### Producer tasting notes

Harney & Sons describes Unjonotomo as heavy-bodied, smooth, sweet and creamy, with pronounced spinach and artichoke flavors. The producer also mentions faint honeydew-melon sweetness over a cooked-spinach aroma. These are the producer’s notes, not a Best Matcha tasting assessment.

### Format and preparation

The available option is Loose / 30 g. Tin, SKU 44304. The official one-time purchase price checked for this fiche is US$66. Subscription savings and promotional codes are conditional offers, not the standard price.

The brand’s published whisked preparation uses 2 g of powder and 120 ml of water at 175°F (80°C). Sift the powder, add half the water and whisk until smooth, then add the remaining water and whisk until frothy. Harney & Sons also positions this extra-thick grade for concentrated ceremonial preparation.
