YAMA Signature Matcha came from a pretty simple goal — to create a matcha that we’d actually want to use every day, especially for drinks we serve.
We worked closely with our producer to fine-tune the blend until it felt right: something with enough depth to stand out, but still balanced and easy to drink.
This blend leans into a nutty, fuller-bodied profile, with a slight bitterness that keeps it from feeling flat. It’s designed to pair especially well with milk, while still being enjoyable on its own when prepared right.
If you like your matcha nutty (like very obvious slap in your face nutty), this one is perfect!
Taste Notes:
- Strong toasty, pistachio-like nuttiness in oatmilk,
(Oatside) peanut butter-like flavour in fresh milk (Magnolia Barista)
- Smooth & Creamy
- Noticeable light bitter edge
Origin: Blend, Uji + Wazuka
Producer: Uji, Kyoto
Cultivar: Blend
Harvest: 2025 Aged Tencha
How We Like It
- Matcha latte / Cold Whisk: cuts through milk nicely without losing character
- Oat milk / fresh milk: both work well, depending on how creamy you want it
- Pure Matcha (straight matcha): clean, balanced, easy to drink
