by Fukujuen福寿園
The premium tier of Fukujuen's original stone-ground line. 'Gen' (Dark) expresses the full richness of Uji tencha—concentrated umami, deep kokumi, and a long, resonant finish. Even as usucha it carries the presence most matcha only achieves in koicha. Stone-milled to order in small batches for maximum freshness.
Editorial verdict
A genuinely exceptional stone-ground matcha for those who appreciate serious umami depth. The Gen is not merely premium in name—its richness and aromatic complexity distinguish it from most high-end ceremonial matcha. Best appreciated as koicha, but rewarding in thin preparation as well. Made-to-order availability preserves peak freshness.
