Indulge in the rich, smooth taste of Onyx Coffee Lab’s Matcha Latte Powder, made with premium organic Kagoshima matcha from Japan’s renowned tea-growing regions. This carefully crafted blend features a sweet, vanilla-forward flavor with delicate floral silkiness, complemented by the umami and herbal notes of high-quality matcha.

Kagoshima Prefecture is located in the southernmost part of Japan’s Kyushu island.
Kagoshima is known for its warm climate, volcanic soil, and rich agricultural traditions. It is particularly famous for its shade-grown matcha, which is cultivated in the mountainous regions where the environment supports rich, vibrant flavor profiles. The mild weather and high humidity levels make it an ideal location for producing high-quality matcha that has a sweet, smooth, and slightly floral taste.

The region is home to the Yabukita and Saemidori cultivars, both known for producing a matcha with a distinctive umami richness and balanced sweetness.

Yabukita cultivar was developed in Japan in the 1950s, Yabukita is the most widely planted and popular tea cultivar in Japan, representing around 70-80% of all green tea grown in the country.
Yabukita produces a well-balanced, slightly sweet, and grassy matcha with a mild astringency. It has a smooth, subtle umami flavor with a clean, vegetal taste.
Yabukita is resilient and adaptable, making it a favorite among farmers for its high yield and consistent quality. It is shade-grown in many matcha-producing regions, contributing to its vibrant green color and rich flavor.

The Saemidori cultivar is a hybrid cultivar that combines characteristics of Yabukita and the Asatsuyu cultivar, introduced in the 1980s.
Known for its sweet, floral notes, Saemidori matcha tends to be smooth and creamy, with a rich umami flavor and low bitterness. It’s often described as having a light, floral fragrance with a slight sweetness that lingers.
Saemidori is particularly favored for high-quality ceremonial matcha due to its smooth texture and delicate flavor. It is a slow-growing cultivar, making it more labor-intensive but rewarding in terms of quality.

In addition to being a Yabukita and Saemidori cultivar from Kagoshima, Onyx Matcha is Shade-Grown and Stone-Milled.

Shade-growing refers to the practice of covering tea plants for a portion of their growing cycle to enhance the quality of the matcha. This process is typically carried out for about 2-4 weeks before harvesting, and it significantly impacts the flavor profile and nutritional content of the tea.

Once the tea leaves are harvested, they must be processed to create the fine powder that makes matcha. Traditional matcha is stone-milled to preserve the integrity of the leaf and produce the desired fine, smooth texture.
Stone milling ensures the best flavor is maintained, as the leaves are ground gently and evenly. The process creates a soft powder that retains all of the nutrients and flavors from the leaves, resulting in a rich, complex taste.

Together, shade-growing and stone-milling create a matcha that is complex, smooth, and rich in flavor. The combination of increased chlorophyll, amino acids, and careful milling results in matcha that’s both delicious and nutritious.
The shading increases nutrients like L-theanine and antioxidants, while stone-milling preserves those nutrients, making the resulting matcha a highly nourishing drink.

These ancient techniques are the cornerstone of premium, ceremonial-grade matcha. They ensure the tea retains its authentic flavors and textural qualities, making it stand out from lower-grade matcha that may be mass-produced using more industrial methods.
