Matcha Narino

Matcha Narino by Horii Shichimeien – Available at Ujicha Matcha

Elevate your daily ritual with Matcha Narino, a refined, first-harvest matcha crafted by Horii Shichimeien, one of Uji’s most revered tea producers. Grown in the misty hills of Uji, Kyoto—the birthplace of Japanese matcha—Narino is a testament to tradition, terroir, and meticulous craftsmanship.

This exceptional matcha opens with a rich, velvety umami and a delicate, lingering sweetness, balanced by a whisper of pleasant bitterness that speaks to its authenticity. Its vibrant green hue signals its freshness and high quality, while its fragrant aroma evokes springtime fields and freshly picked tea leaves.

Whether you’re whisking it into a smooth usucha (thin tea), preparing a more intense and meditative koicha (thick tea), or blending it into an indulgent morning latte, Matcha Narino transforms your wellness routine into a sensory experience. Its smooth texture and elegant flavor also make it suitable for culinary creations—though it shines brightest when enjoyed on its own.

What makes Matcha Narino special isn’t just its heritage—it’s the feeling it brings. With every sip, you’re tasting centuries of tea-making wisdom and the careful hands of farmers who understand the magic of timing, soil, and shade. It’s matcha for those who appreciate beauty, balance, and intention in their everyday lives.
