“Chitose” is the gentleman among our matchas. It is characterized by its unobtrusive and mild taste , which forms a harmonious symphony of different nuances. From bready-malty to fruity-floral notes, crowned by an intense umami experience , this matcha offers a comprehensive taste experience. The deep, dark green color underlines the high quality and purity.

Our "Chitose" Matcha is exclusively selected by the renowned Sansai-Ryu tea school in Izumo, House Kansuian , for the traditional Japanese tea ceremony. Only the finest quality of this Japanese green tea is used for the "Koicha" preparation method, making "Chitose" a true symbol of premium quality.

The wisdom of old age is honored in Japan through a special custom: from a specific birthday, for example 60, 70, 77, one is given an honorary title . The 60th birthday has a deeper meaning, as the Japanese zodiac cycle begins anew every 60 years. It is a good time to celebrate change and growth. The name for 60-year-olds that expresses respect, wisdom and adaptability is: “Chitose”.

Treat yourself to our "Chitose" Matcha as a sign of self-care or as an exclusive gift for a loved one. Whether for a 60th birthday or simply as an expression of appreciation - "Chitose" is the perfect choice for everyone who appreciates premium quality and tradition.
