Japanese tea growers call this matcha, MAI, which means "Dance of the Tea", inspired by the spiraling of matcha powder in the air when the tea container is opened. It is high-grade matcha, organically grown by Koga Kumiko in Kirishima, Japan. MAI matcha is made with the cultivars Yabukita and Saemidori, capturing the essence of southern Japan’s volcanic soil and misty climate. The region's distinct characteristics help contribute to a rich flavor profile that is ideal for matcha lattes and frappuccinos.
