A delicate yet expressive matcha, Yame no Hana embodies the elegance of Hoshino’s craftsmanship. This tea delivers a vibrant, grassy freshness with a luminous green color and a silky, finely milled texture. Its flavor is marked by a gentle sweetness balanced with a soft astringency, making it ideal for both traditional preparation and modern matcha applications. With its bright aroma and clean finish, Yame no Hana is a perfect introduction to the refined character of Yame-grown matcha.
