Hekisuien Matcha – Kashiwagi no Mukashi 30 g

Ceremonial-Grade Japanese Matcha Powder

Kashiwagi no Mukashi (柏木の昔, “Oak Tree of the Past”) is a revered ceremony-grade matcha from Hekisuien, a Uji matcha producer with over 150 years of tradition. Favoured by Jimyosai, the 14th-generation grand master of Omotesenke, its name invokes the timeless strength of the oak - ever-green and unchanging - symbolising enduring quality and elegance. 

Flavour Profile

Expect a luxurious balance of velvety umami and gentle sweetness, with a harmonious structure that brings depth without sharp edges - perfectly suited for rich koicha bowls as well as refined usucha whiskings.

Aroma & Texture

This vibrant green powder releases a deep, smooth vegetal scent and whisks into a silky, stable froth, offering a luxuriant mouthfeel whether enjoyed thick or thin. 

Why It Stands Out

• Endorsed by a senior Omotesenke tea master - reflecting its ceremonial credibility and refined character
• The name underscores its everlasting elegance, much like the evergreen oak it’s named after

Best For

• Koicha ceremonies - for deep, meditative bowls with depth
• Usucha rituals - for delicate, everyday mindfulness
• Premium matcha lattes or iced drinks - adds ceremonial flavour and colour to modern forms
