London Tea Teishu Ceremonial Suiko

The Ceremonial Matcha Suiko is the perfect introduction to the world of Japanese matcha ceremonies. Traditionally prepared with water, this matcha offers a particularly delightful experience. It has a fresh and slightly sweet taste. Our Ceremonial Suiko comes from Kagoshima Prefecture and is a source of pride for our local tea farmers. Kagoshima is located on the southern island of Kyushu, known for its lush vegetation and unspoiled nature. The warm and humid climate provides ideal conditions during the tea's growth phase, which is reflected in its flavor. The volcanic island has produced nutrient-rich soils. No fewer than eleven active volcanoes continue to enrich the land with their ash, providing valuable minerals and promoting the growth of prized plants. These optimal conditions have allowed tea cultivation in Kagoshima to thrive for about 700 years. The long history and continuous optimization processes have made Kagoshima Japan's second-largest tea-producing prefecture, offering ideal conditions for organic farming.
