Xu (序) is our ceremonial grade matcha crafted from a carefully balanced blend of Okumidori and Yabukita cultivars, grown in Shaoxing, Zhejiang. Shade-grown before harvest and finely stone-ground to over 1,000 mesh, it produces a vibrant green color, silky texture, and a rich, full-bodied cup.

The experience opens with a deep, savory umami, followed by layers of creamy sweetness and subtle notes of dark chocolate and toasted nuts. Its pronounced vegetal character gives way to a lingering, oceanic finish, while a gentle bitterness adds depth and structure without overpowering the cup. The result is smooth yet bold, with a satisfying richness that stays on the palate.

If you enjoy matcha with pronounced umami and a deeper, more robust character, Xu is the perfect choice. Its rich body shines when prepared traditionally, while its bold flavor also holds beautifully in a premium matcha latte.
