What shapes the taste of matcha?

  • Origin

    Different growing regions can lead to different flavour personalities. Some feel more refined, some more vibrant, some more rounded.

  • Cultivar

    Just like grape varieties in wine or coffee origins, cultivar can influence sweetness, softness, umami, brightness, and structure.

  • Harvest timing

    More delicate and refined matchas are often associated with earlier harvest leaf selection.

  • Shading and processing

    Growing conditions and post-harvest handling influence colour, aroma, and texture.

  • Grinding process

    Texture matters. A finer powder usually gives a smoother drinking experience.

  • Freshness

    Even a good matcha will not show well if it has been exposed to heat, light, moisture, or oxygen for too long.

How to Choose the Best Matcha for You

The best matcha depends on how you drink it. If you mostly make iced lattes, choose a matcha with enough body to hold up with milk. If you drink matcha with water, choose a smoother and more refined profile with higher umami and minimal bitterness.
