Tenmyou is a prestigious and relatively rare ceremonial grade matcha from Uji, Kyoto, cultivated from Samidori seedlings. It is celebrated for its vibrant green color, rich 'covered aroma' from the shading process, and a deep umami flavor that transitions to a lingering natural sweetness. Tasting notes often include creamy, milky textures with hints of jasmine rice, and sometimes savory, vegetal undertones. Its exceptional quality makes it suitable for both Usucha and Koicha preparations.
