Meet Maison Neue: She is a blend of the ceremonial grade cultivars Yabukita, and Saimidori. This is a balanced, vibrant, and exceptionally smooth, this blend brings together the classic depth of Yabukita with the remarkable sweetness of Saemidori. Notes of fresh spring greens and sweet cream unfold alongside hints of vanilla, sugar snap peas, and a delicate floral sweetness, creating a cup that is both comforting and refined.
Crafted from carefully selected Yabukita and Saemidori leaves and stone-ground in small batches, this matcha offers a silky texture, brilliant emerald color, and a harmonious flavor profile. Yabukita contributes a rich foundation of umami and fresh green character, while Saemidori softens the blend with its natural sweetness and creamy finish.
Exclusively blended for our partnership with Maison Neue
About the Farm:
Nestled in the mountains of Honyama, Shizuoka, this tea comes from a historic growing region known for its pristine natural environment and exceptional tea. Surrounded by the Abe River, lush mountains, and gentle morning and evening mist, the region’s unique climate creates ideal conditions for slow-growing tea leaves that develop a naturally sweet, smooth flavor with delicate umami and very little astringency. But great tea takes more than the right environment. Local farmers carefully select growing locations for each cultivar, tend to their tea gardens with intention, and refine every step of the harvesting and processing journey to bring out the leaves’ best qualities. From the mountain grown leaves to the careful steaming, blending, and finishing techniques, every detail contributes to a matcha that reflects both the character of the land and the craftsmanship behind it.
