Matcha produced by Zen Wonders Matcha
Zen Wonders Matcha offers a carefully curated selection of Japanese matcha, each grade showcasing distinct characteristics and cultivation techniques. Their product range spans from ceremonial grades perfect for traditional tea ceremonies to versatile culinary options for modern applications.
Ceremonial Matcha Collection
Hanae Ceremonial Matcha represents the gentle artistry of Kyoto’s tea culture. This Okumidori (green cultivar) matcha from Uji delivers an upfront sweetness with smooth, mellow flavors underscored by subtle umami (savory taste) notes. Designed specifically for Usucha (thin tea) preparation, it captures the essence of traditional Japanese tea ceremonies.
Yukiro Premium Ceremonial Matcha combines two distinguished cultivars – Okumidori and Samidori – creating a symphony of complex flavors from Uji. This blend offers enhanced sweetness with a lingering umami finish, suitable for both Usucha and the thicker Koicha (thick tea) preparations, providing a luxurious and deeply nuanced tea ceremony experience.
Haruna Organic Ceremonial Matcha brings JAS-certified organic quality from Kagoshima’s Saemidori cultivar. This balanced matcha offers gentle sweetness with a clean, refreshing finish, appealing to those seeking an organic approach to traditional Usucha preparation.
Culinary Matcha Range
Taishiro Culinary Matcha from Uji’s rolling hills delivers robust, full-bodied flavor with well-rounded bitterness and strong, grassy aromas. This blend infuses vibrant green color and distinct matcha essence into lattes, smoothies, and culinary creations.
Kohiki Premium Culinary Matcha refines the culinary experience with smoother texture and pronounced umami notes from Uji sources. This versatile grade elevates lattes, ice cream, cakes, and pastries with subtle complexity.
Shizen Organic Culinary Matcha provides JAS-certified organic quality from Kagoshima’s fields. Its balanced flavor and vibrant green color make it a versatile, sustainable choice for conscious culinary exploration.
Traditional Processing Excellence
Each matcha undergoes meticulous production following centuries-old techniques. The Oishita Saibai (shading method) involves covering tea plants three weeks before Ichibancha (spring harvest) using reed screens called Tana or black blankets known as Jikagise. This ancient technique increases chlorophyll and L-Theanine content, resulting in mellow, umami-rich flavors with enhanced sweetness.
After careful harvesting, leaves undergo flash-steaming to halt oxidation and preserve vibrant green color. The dried leaves, called Tencha, are sorted, de-stemmed, and ground using traditional stone mills in carefully controlled environments monitoring moisture, light, and temperature to prevent oxidation.
