A spring-harvest Yame matcha for everyday usucha.
MIRYOKU is a non-organic spring-harvest matcha from Yame, finely machine-ground for whisked cups, matcha latte, and everyday matcha use.
What the cup is like
A clear matcha cup with nutty green aroma, cacao-like depth, moderate body, and a soft bitter finish. It is best introduced as usucha, then adjusted for latte if you prefer milk.
First cup
Sift first if you can. Whisk quickly until the surface looks smooth, then adjust water amount or temperature to soften the finish.
Short-date batch
Best enjoyed by August 30, 2026. Offered at a special short-date price for customers who plan to enjoy it soon. This batch has been stored carefully; matcha is still most enjoyable while its color and aroma are fresh.
A Spring-Harvest Matcha from Yame, Fukuoka
MIRYOKU is a spring-harvest matcha from Yame in Fukuoka, one of Japan's well-known tea regions. It is made for whisked matcha first: a simple bowl of usucha, with enough body to work well in a matcha latte when you want milk.
This batch is not certified organic, and it is not stone-milled. It is finely ground with modern milling equipment, producing a powder that is smooth enough for everyday whisked preparation. Its appeal is the spring-harvest Yame character, straightforward taste, and current short-date price.
In the cup, expect a nutty green aroma, a flavor that can recall dark chocolate or cacao, and a soft lingering bitterness. It is a clear choice when you want to open and enjoy matcha soon, especially if you do not need organic certification.
Who This Matcha Is For
- For people who want a spring-harvest matcha for usucha and do not need organic certification
- For customers who enjoy a nuttier, cacao-like matcha profile with soft bitterness
- For matcha drinkers who plan to use the bag soon and can take advantage of the short-date price
- For latte drinkers who still want a clear matcha taste under milk
- For simple matcha sweets and cold matcha when you want a fine powder rather than loose leaf
What Makes MIRYOKU Different
- Yame origin: Yame in Fukuoka is known for high-quality Japanese tea, giving MIRYOKU a specific regional character rather than a generic matcha profile.
- Spring harvest: The leaves are from a spring-harvest batch, making this a good fit for whisking and drinking, not only for baking.
- Fine machine-ground powder: This batch is machine-ground, not stone-milled. The grind is still quite fine, making it suitable for whisked usucha and latte.
- Organic status: MIRYOKU is not certified organic. If certification matters, Organic Matcha Superior is the better fit. Choose MIRYOKU when you want a Yame matcha profile and plan to enjoy the bag soon.
- Best enjoyed soon: Best enjoyed by August 30, 2026. The short-date price reflects this, making MIRYOKU a practical choice if you plan to open and enjoy it soon.
Taste Profile
- Aroma: Nutty green matcha aroma with a cacao-like note
- Palate: Moderate body, light umami, mild sweetness, and a rounded bitter edge
- Finish: Soft lingering bitterness that works well in everyday usucha
Compared with Organic Matcha Superior, MIRYOKU is the more direct, non-organic Yame matcha option, with a nuttier profile and current short-date price. Compared with Organic Green Tea Powder, MIRYOKU is true matcha rather than ground sencha powder, so the cup is more suited to whisked usucha.
