Our Saemidori Single Cultivar Matcha is the first release in Anya Matcha’s Memories of a Season series, celebrating rare cultivars harvested only once a year. Saemidori, meaning “clear green,” reflects its name with a vivid colour and clarity of flavour. In the cup, it offers an extra-creamy texture with gentle umami, a clean finish, and no astringency. The aroma blooms as soon as it’s whisked — creamy, slightly nutty, and fresh. Naturally sweet, Saemidori is as enjoyable prepared traditionally as it is whisked into a smooth, creamy latte.
