FAQ

What is Plot No.7 ceremonial matcha powder?

Plot No.7 is a single-origin ceremonial matcha powder from Kakegawa, Shizuoka, Japan. It is made from shade-grown tencha harvested as first flush (ichibancha), then finished as stone-milled matcha for whisking.

Where is this Shizuoka matcha from?

This is Kakegawa matcha from Shizuoka, Japan—a well-known production area for bright, aromatic matcha.

What cultivar is Plot No.7 matcha?

Plot No.7 uses the Tsuyuhikari cultivar, selected for a rich body and expressive aroma.

What does Chagusaba mean in Shizuoka tea farming?

Chagusaba is a traditional Shizuoka method where native grasses are returned to tea fields to support soil balance over time.

How does Tsuyuhikari matcha taste?

This Tsuyuhikari ceremonial matcha powder is umami-rich and aroma-forward, with slightly higher astringency than Plot No.6. It keeps a clean finish and holds structure well.

Is Plot No.7 good for matcha lattes?

Yes. Plot No.7 is especially suited for a matcha latte. Its deeper flavor and slightly higher astringency can feel more harmonious with milk, without turning bitter.

Is this matcha suitable for usucha and koicha?

Yes. Use Plot No.7 as usucha (thin tea) for a vivid aroma. You can also prepare koicha (thick tea) depending on your ratio and whisking style.

How do I make a matcha latte with ceremonial matcha powder?

Sift 2g ceremonial matcha powder, add 30–40ml of 70–75°C (158–167°F) water, whisk until smooth, then add 180–220ml milk (hot or iced). For a stronger latte, use 2.5–3g.

How should I store matcha to keep it fresh?

Keep matcha sealed, away from heat, light, and moisture. After opening, reseal tightly and refrigerate. For best aroma and color, use within 30–60 days. Let the tin return to room temperature before opening to avoid condensation.

Shade-grown tea fields in Higashiyama, Kakegawa (Shizuoka)

Higashiyama Highlands · Kakegawa, Shizuoka

Shade-Grown, the Matcha Way

Real matcha starts as tencha. These fields are shade-grown, so the leaves build more amino acids and less harsh edge.

The result is a classic Kakegawa profile: full umami, high aroma, and very low astringency.

Farm work in Shizuoka tea fields (Chagusaba grass harvest)

Chagusaba · A living farming system

A Quiet Craft You Can Taste

In Shizuoka, Chagusaba means harvesting native grasses each winter and laying them around the tea plants.

As the grasses break down, they enrich soil, hold moisture, and support healthy microbes. It’s slow work. It shows up as depth and smoothness in the cup.

For Plot No.6 / No.7, this is the core: aromatic lift, rich umami, and a clean finish that feels effortless.
