Matcha Kiwami Choan

Grand Prix supreme matcha by Marukyu-Koyamaen

Best-before: Oct, 2026 - In stock and ready to ship

Kiwami Choan is Marukyu Koyamaen's latest matcha that won the Grand Prix, the top prize in the matcha category of ” Japanese Tea Selection Paris 2021” tea fair held in France, and is positioned as the next high-end matcha after "Tenju".

As a koicha, it is mellow and creamy, verdant and sweet like fresh green peas. It offers a remarkably clean and pure flavor that is by no means lacking in complexity. As an usucha, it has a slightly different character. It retains its creamy-milky sweetness while providing a deeply gratifying velvety texture, the notes of almond and walnut ebb and flow on the palate like gentle waves. Whether enjoyed as a koicha or an usucha, the aftertaste is consistently characterized by a tender sweetness, devoid of any tartness.

Compared to the Choan just below it in the lineup, this tea is notably fuller, sweeter, and more intense in flavor. It ranks just slightly below the top-rated Tenju.

How to prepare

USUCHA

STEP 1: Place 1.5–2 g (approx. ½ tsp or 2 chashaku (traditional tea scoop)) of matcha powder into a suitable tea bowl.
STEP 2: Pour 70 ml (2.4 fl oz) of 80°C (176°F) water over the powder.
STEP 3: Whisk (vigorously) with a chasen (tea whisk) until frothy.

❖ Warm the tea bowl with hot water first, then dry it thoroughly with a cloth. This helps maintain the ideal temperature and brings out the fresh aroma of the matcha.
❖ Sift the matcha powder through a fine strainer before use to prevent clumping (strongly recommended).
❖ Drink the matcha immediately after preparing it, as it may become more bitter as it cools.
❖ After opening the matcha packaging, consume all the tea within one month for the best experience.

KOICHA

STEP 1: Place 3.5–4 g (approx. 1 tsp or 4 chashaku (traditional tea scoop)) of matcha powder into a suitable tea bowl.
STEP 2: Pour 30 ml (2.4 fl oz) of 80°C (176°F) water over the powder.
STEP 3: Gently mix with a chasen until creamy.
