Sold out
With a poetic name meaning 'heart of hearts', this Koicha-grade matcha has all the balanced complexities of cultivars from Uji. Rich, smooth, and robust, this tea boasts a special bittersweet cocoa flavor and nutty aroma that becomes more pronounced when made thick. No matter the mood or method of preparation, we find ourselves returning to Tea Dealer's ceremonial-grade matcha time and time again. Flavors: Nutty, tart green apple, bittersweet cocoa, delicately sweet

Cultivar: 30% gokoh, 20% asahi, 50% samidori Weight: 30g (stone-milled, ceremonial-grade) Origin: New York, United States
Artist Notes
Tea Dealers Founded in 2015 by Shin Won Yoon and Stefen Ramirez, Tea Dealers is a small NYC-based tea company focused on sourcing premium teas from China, Korea, Japan, Taiwan, and India. Dedicated to offering pure, high-quality, and authentic varieties, Shin and Stefens' love for tea has taken them around the globe in search of traditionally crafted products. Upholding the utmost integrity in their selection, Tea Dealers solely works with small family farm partners who appreciate the art and simplicity of a single cultivar, resulting in creations without any processing, altering, or blending. It is exceedingly rare to find a tea company with competent expertise spanning this many regions and countries. Still, with one visit to Tea Dealers' curated Tribeca gallery and tasting room, you realize that—though rare—they do exist.
Care Instructions
Tea, much like coffee, has a shelf life and is sensitive to light, heat, moisture, and air. Please always refer to the producer's individual instructions for product storage and care. Keep your teas stored in a cool, climate-controlled location and within an airtight, light-proof container. Store unopened bags or tins (especially Shincha, Matcha, or delicate green teas) in the fridge to prolong their shelf life. Always bring the tea back to room temperature before opening to avoid getting condensation on the tea.
