Matchaeologist is a matcha brand sourcing exclusively from Uji, Kyoto, Japan, offering a curated range of ceremonial and culinary grades. Its matcha is grown using the traditional Honzu method, a 30-day shading process with rice-straw mats before harvest.
The collection includes cultivars Misaki, Matsu, and Meiko for drinking, and Midori and Mirai for culinary use, all processed from first-flush tencha ground slowly on granite stone mills.
Midori Culinary Matcha 1kg is a reserve culinary matcha with rich, robust flavor, mellow umami, and enough intensity to remain noticeable alongside complementary ingredients.

Midori combines robust depth with a rounded matcha flavor rather than a single dominant note.
