Spirit Tea "Then & Now" Ceremonial Matcha

In an inconsistent world, continuity is absurd. At best, it is quaint, charming, or silly; at worst it is harmful, false nostalgia. But for some, including Grand Master Kobayashi, whose family has been producing tea in Uji since 1827 by thousand-year-old-traditional methods, we are offered a living glimpse or the past. Kobayashi named this matcha Ima-mukashi, combining the characters for "the present" and "a long time ago".

Mouthwatering umami and crisp floral sweetness make this great for all-occasion sipping: in milk, neat, or in bubbles.

Tasting Notes: Edamamae, pea shoots, chocolate daisy
