Emerald Forest Kirishima Deluxe Matcha – Organic: The Fine Balance Between Everyday and Depth
Sometimes you are not looking for a matcha that tries to explain everything. You are looking for one that offers more than simple accompaniment. The Emerald Forest Kirishima Deluxe Matcha is exactly that kind of tea: intentionally positioned between the Emerald Forest Kirishima Matcha and the Emerald Forest Kirishima Premium Matcha in both flavor and quality. More body, more calmness, more presence in the cup, without becoming demanding. A matcha for those who enjoy the standard, yet sense that there is room for more.
Like its sister varieties, the Deluxe originates from the green oasis of Kyushu, in the volcanic highlands of the Kirishima region. Mist, mineral-rich soils, and a climate that gently filters sunlight have created ideal conditions for exceptional organic matcha for decades. Long before “organic” became a marketing term, it was already a lived philosophy here: respectful, patient, attentive. The farmers observe their tea plants daily, watching humidity, leaf texture, and the scent of the soil. Decisions are guided not by calendars, but by nature itself.
Deluxe means: more depth than the standard, more ease than the premium
The Emerald Forest Kirishima Deluxe Matcha closes the gap between two worlds. It retains the approachable elegance of the standard grade, while offering noticeably more umami, a rounder texture, and a longer, calmer finish. At the same time, it remains more open and versatile than the premium grade: less intense, less dominant, yet beautifully balanced and harmonious.
When gently whisked with warm water, this matcha unfolds not only in flavor but delivers the entire tea leaf into the cup. Valuable naturally occurring compounds such as catechins, saponins, and vitamins are easily absorbed. The result is not just a beverage, but a dense green moment shaped by landscape, craftsmanship, and time.
A matcha for many paths: pure, as usucha, or as a refined base
Whether enjoyed as a classic usucha, a quiet morning ritual, or as an elegant foundation for creative recipes, the Deluxe remains true to itself. Its texture is fine and creamy, its aroma clear, its finish pleasantly long. It is ideal for those seeking a matcha that performs beautifully in daily use, yet offers significantly more nuance than a standard-grade tea.
