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
