HANNARI Matcha | Premium Latte Grade - 1st Harvest Saemidori 2026

HANNARI is the latest introduction to our range, a delightful First-Harvest Saemidori Single Cultivar Matcha designed to make outstanding lattes thanks to the well-rounded flavour profile and deep green colour of the Saemidori cultivar.

Given the popularity of our last two sourcing of Hannari in 2024 and 2025 and the shortage of raw materials in the last year, in 2026 we wanted to keep the standard of this blend high, so we settled on this bright Saemidori single cultivar tea from Kagoshima: a luscious and well balanced 1st harvest Matcha designed to close the gap between our Premium Culinary Grade KOHIKI and our Ceremonial Grade HANAE, both in terms of quality and cost.

HANNARI makes outstanding Matcha latte and desserts, and it's great for Cold Brew too.

Produced with first harvest spring leaves and milled with the latest technology bead-mill machine that equals the stone-milling particle size of around 8-10 micron.

Flavour profile: Rich and well-balanced with subtle roasted notes, sweet, nutty and with heaps of lingering Umami

Origin: Kagoshima (Japan) / 1st Harvest 2026 - 100% Saemidori Cultivar

This Matcha is available in a 500g and 1kg formats here.
