Gokou ごこう Wazuka Matcha

Gokou, "halo," is a historic Uji cultivar, bred for the finest shaded teas. Grown in the rolling hills of Wazuka, Kyoto, it carries the depth and refinement of a valley devoted entirely to tea.

Stone-milled from select first-harvest leaves shaded in the traditional tana style for 30 days, this single-cultivar matcha is rich, creamy and velvety. Avocado softens the cup, followed by raw cacao and a lingering finish of sea salt.

Made for koicha and usucha, for those drawn to depth and texture.
