AYAME
Premium Matcha
Description
The vivid emerald green of this super premium matcha will leave you with an unforgettable impression.
Made from the best leaves plucked during the first harvest of the month and stone-ground, the delicious fragrance of AYAME will make your mouth water. On your tongue, its round umami and low bitterness with a perfect balance will make this matcha from Yame one of your new favorites.
Packed with high caffein, catechins and theanins, AYAME is the perfect energy boost you need to kick off the day or before training.
*About the 250g option: please note that this is made at time of order and takes about 1 week to be prepared by the producer as it is a stone-ground matcha.
