In this matcha set you'll find our three traditional matcha blends from Rishouen (利招園) in Uji, each with a unique flavour. These teas are blended for use in a ceremonial setting and represent the classic Uji style and flavour profiles.

In order of quality, this set includes:

Uji-no-Mori: a bright and verdant blend of predominantly Kyōken-283 and Yabukita cultivars. This is a classic Uji usucha flavour profile, but can also be enjoyed as koicha

Shōyō: a deep-flavoured tea with a velvety texture blended from hand-picked Samidori, Uji-Hikari, and Asahi tenchas. While designed to be enjoyed as koicha, this tea's depth and flavour can be explored both as koicha and usucha.

Uta-no-Mori: an incredibly luscious and powerful tea blended from hand-picked Narino, Samidori, Uji-Hikari and Asahi tencha from award-winning farmers. This is our highest grade Uji matcha, blended specifically to be served as koicha. However, even as usucha, it's intense power can still be felt.

Rishouen (利招園)

Descended from a family of tea farmers, the head of Rishouen, Koji Kagata now focuses on working with high-grade tencha producers in Uji and the greater Kyoto tea producing region to create top-tier matcha blends suitable for use both inside the tearoom and in day-to-day life. As a practitioner of the Japanese tea ceremony himself, Kagata-san has a keen sense for blending exquisite matcha for usucha and koicha.

Rishouen is a small, family owned tea producer located in Uji, Kyoto. Founded in 1947, they specialise in selecting tencha from the best fields in Kyoto before skillfully fine-tuning blend recipes and flavour profiles to produce high-grade matcha.
