Rishi Tea & Botanicals Matcha Hekisui is a Garden Direct green tea powder imported from Uji. Its defining characteristics are a blue-green color, abundant umami, and floral gyokuro notes. The product carries Garden Direct and Direct Trade labels. Its single listed format is a 30-gram size with a stated yield of more than 20 servings, but this size is currently sold out.
How does Matcha Hekisui taste?
Matcha Hekisui has lots of umami accompanied by floral gyokuro notes. The gyokuro reference describes part of the flavor profile. It should not be read as a separate ingredient or a claim about the matcha’s production. The available tasting details focus on these two characteristics without naming sweetness, bitterness, astringency, or other flavor notes.
This concise profile gives buyers two clear points of comparison: pronounced umami and a floral note associated with gyokuro. No preparation method, water temperature, or serving ratio is specified for this product.
What color is this Uji matcha powder?
The powder is described as blue-green and particularly vivid. This is a product-specific visual description rather than a general description of matcha. Matcha Hekisui is categorized as green tea powder, and the product imagery presents the matcha in loose powdered form.
What sourcing labels does Matcha Hekisui carry?
Matcha Hekisui is imported from Uji. It also carries Garden Direct and Direct Trade designations. These labels are attached specifically to this matcha, alongside its classification as green tea powder.
The product details do not name a cultivar, harvest date, or organic status, so those points should not be assumed from the Uji sourcing or store-wide descriptions.
