TSUJIRI Tsuji Midori Matcha Powder is an everyday ceremonial-grade Japanese matcha made from first-harvest leaves for a balanced, refreshing cup and versatile culinary use.
Harvested and milled with care in Uji, Kyoto’s tea tradition, this 30g pouch of Tsuji Midori delivers bright green color, a clean umami backbone, and mild, elegant bitterness that makes it easy to enjoy daily. It’s positioned between premium ceremonial intensity and practical versatility, so it performs well as whisked usucha, creamy lattes, and flavor-forward baking additions without overwhelming other ingredients.
How does this matcha taste and finish?
Expect a well-balanced profile: a hint of natural sweetness up front, savory umami in the middle, and a crisp, restrained bitterness on the finish. The texture is fine and smooth when whisked, creating a glossy, even suspension rather than grainy sediment.
- Delicate sweetness balanced by clean umami
- Subtle, refined bitterness—pleasant without harshness
- Bright verdant aroma and vibrant emerald color
- Silky mouthfeel when prepared with the right technique
What makes this a first-harvest / ceremonial-grade option?
First-harvest leaves (ichibancha) are picked early in the season and typically yield purer flavor and color. TSUJIRI classifies this as everyday ceremonial grade, meaning it meets high standards for leaf selection and stone grinding while remaining approachable for routine use.
- Made from first-harvest tea leaves for clarity and aroma
- Processed and milled to preserve vivid color and umami
- Groomed for daily enjoyment rather than exclusive ceremonial use
- Produced by TSUJIRI’s long-standing Uji tea expertise
How should I prepare it for best results?
Use 1–2 grams (about half to one teaspoon) with 60–80 ml of 70–80°C water for a smooth usucha. Whisk briskly in a zigzag motion until frothy, or blend with warmed milk for lattes. For baking, dissolve the powder in a small amount of warm liquid to keep color and texture uniform.
- Usucha: 1–2 g matcha, 60–80 ml hot (not boiling) water, whisk until frothy
- Latte: 1–2 g matcha, steamed milk, sweetener to taste, froth or blend
- Baking: pre-dissolve in warm liquid to disperse evenly
- Storage: keep sealed, cool, and away from light to retain freshness
Can I use this matcha in recipes beyond tea?
Yes—Tsuji Midori’s balanced flavor and vibrant color make it suitable for a range of culinary uses. It enhances milk-based drinks, ice creams, cookies, pancakes, and savory sauces without overpowering other flavors.
- Matcha lattes, smoothies, and frappés
- Baked goods: cakes, cookies, muffins, and breads
- Cold desserts: gelato, pudding, and mousse
- Savory pairings: dressings, marinades, and dashi-based dishes
