Yabukita is a variety so beloved and widely cultivated throughout Japan that people say, “When you think of Japanese tea, you think of Yabukita.”
Its widespread cultivation is considered proof of its excellent quality and adaptability to different regions.

With its pleasant aroma and well-balanced moderate astringency and sweetness, it is often used for sencha. However, Wazuka-grown Yabukita is also suitable for matcha because of its high quality, and is recommended for matcha sweets as well.
Although it is the most affordable of our matcha products, it is sure to be a higher-quality product than the matcha typically used for everyday food processing. Try comparing it with your usual matcha.
