Why First-Harvest Matcha?

First-harvest matcha is made from the young tea leaves picked during Japan's first spring harvest. These leaves are prized for their delicate flavour, natural sweetness and high umami character. Eupouria's matcha is produced from carefully selected tencha sourced primarily from Kagoshima, Japan, before being finely stone-milled into a vibrant green powder.

Sakimidori, Saemidori & Okumidori Cultivars

Eupouria's First Harvest Matcha combines Sakimidori, Saemidori and Okumidori cultivars to create a balanced flavour profile. The blend delivers natural sweetness and creamy texture alongside deep umami and a gentle, refined bitterness. The result is a versatile Japanese matcha suited to both traditional preparation and milk-based drinks.

How to Enjoy & Store Your Matcha

Prepare Eupouria matcha traditionally as usucha or koicha, or use it for hot and iced matcha lattes. For the best flavour and colour, keep your matcha tightly sealed and protected from heat, light, moisture and strong odours. After opening, refrigeration can help preserve freshness. Always allow the container to return towards room temperature before opening to reduce the risk of condensation.
