Shirakawa Legacy is our first large format matcha from the famed Tsuji family in Shirakwa, Uji. A piercing freshness and baked nutty aroma greet you at first sip. The deep verdant color of the matcha comes from 25 days of shading prior to harvest, the fine texture from low RPM milling on a traditional stone mill. Shirakawa Legacy is our pinnacle latte matcha suitable for whisking on its own, crafting a decadent matcha latte, or shaking with ice for a frothy, refreshing iced matcha.


Shirakwa Legacy Blend takes its name from the father and son team working side by side to create this velvety-rich stone milled Matcha. With an heir to the farm secured, father Kiyoharu Tsuji continues to explore and challenge himself in crafting peerless Matcha. His son, Koki, is now not just learning from his father, he is chasing him to become the next #1. This field blend from Shirakawa is made with hand harvested, first flush Yabukita, Samidori and Saemidori varietals.
