Description
About the Producer

The matcha & wasanbon sweets set offers a harmonious blend of Japanese tradition and refinement, perfect for those looking to experience the elegance of a true tea ceremony.

At the heart of the set is either:

Organic certified Wabisuke Matcha, carefully harvested and stone-ground to preserve its delicate umami and high antioxidant content.
Organic Uraku Matcha for its piercing umami that makes it ideal for an indulgent matcha latte.

The earthy matcha provides the perfect balance to the natural sweetness of wasanbon, a finely crafted Japanese sugar made from pure cane. Unlike typical sugars, wasanbon offers a soft, almost floral sweetness that complements the matcha without overpowering its complex flavour profile. Together, they create a refined, balanced tea experience that echoes the principles of Japanese tea ceremonies—harmony, purity, and tranquility.

Choose between four beautifully designed options:

The elegant winter landscape collection, adorned with emblems of the white hare and decorated with a snowy landscape on its paper box.

The Fuji Scenery collection represents Hyakkei- Japan’s 100 views of fuji boxed with a special centered wasanbon etched with Mount Fuji on it with the cool blue tones covering the box.

Autumn Plum blossom set includes a collection of season flowers for the colder months. Adorned in seasonal and festive packaging.
Children's festival honours Japan’s Children’s Day (5th May), featuring koi-nobori (koi fish streamers) symbols. The koi fish represent strength and perseverance, embodying hopes for children’s bright futures.

Wasanbon Ingredients: Sugar cane, Colouring.

Each wasanbon design comes with its own colourful box
