Although it is a rare variety, " Okumidori " from Wazuka is of the highest quality.

Its vibrant green color, moderate bitterness, and mellow aroma make it suitable for food processing, giving your everyday matcha sweets and lattes a luxurious taste and color.Even when heat-treated during the sweets process, it retains its robust flavor and deep green color.

Although it is originally made for use in tea ceremonies, it can also be used for food processing.
Generally, second-grade tea is used for food processing, but by using first-grade tea, Okumidori, in sweets, you can enjoy professional-level matcha sweets at home.
Compare it to the matcha you're using and you'll be amazed at the difference.
