Description

Asahi is one of the rarest and most highly prized matcha cultivars, known for an elegant, creamy smoothness. Chazoku's single-cultivar version is stone-ground with a dense body, rich umami, and notes of vanilla, cashew, and light floral sweetness. It holds up as a strong usucha or in a latte.
