by Itoh Kyuemon伊藤久右衛門
A versatile ceremonial-grade matcha named “Forest of Long Life” (清寿の森). A clean, refreshing aroma and well-rounded astringency make it suitable for both thin and thick preparation. Sourced from Wazuka and Ujitawara, it is stone-ground for consistent color, flavor, and fragrance year-round.
Editorial verdict
Itoh Kyuemon’s most approachable ceremonial-grade entry for regular drinking. Clean, honest Uji character without excessive price. Holds up well in both usucha and mild koicha. Also recommended for matcha lattes where the clean profile complements milk without being overpowered.
