Frequently Asked Questions

We answer everything you want to know about Ujicha Matcha.

What is Ujicha Matcha?

Ujicha Matcha refers to high-quality matcha green tea powder sourced specifically from the Uji region in Kyoto, Japan. Uji is historically renowned as the birthplace of Japanese green tea, known for its ideal climate and traditional cultivation methods that produce a superior, vibrant, and umami-rich matcha.

What is the difference between Uji matcha and regular matcha?

Uji matcha is distinguished by its origin in the Uji region, which has centuries of expertise in tea cultivation. Compared to other regions, Uji matcha is often prized for its vibrant green color, smooth texture, and a perfect balance of sweetness and umami, making it a gold standard for both ceremonial and culinary use.

Which brands of Ujicha Matcha are best?

At Yami, we carry some of the most respected names in the industry. Top brands like Marukyu Koyamaen, Ippodo, and Yamamasa Koyamaen are highly recommended for their commitment to quality, traditional stone-grinding techniques, and exceptional flavor profiles that define authentic Ujicha Matcha.

How should I store my Ujicha Matcha?

To maintain the freshness and vibrant color of your Ujicha Matcha, store it in an airtight container away from direct sunlight, heat, and moisture. Keeping it in a cool, dark place or the refrigerator is ideal. Once opened, try to consume it within a few weeks for the best flavor.

Can I use Ujicha Matcha for baking?

Yes, absolutely! While ceremonial grade Ujicha Matcha is perfect for drinking, we also offer culinary grade options from brands like Marukyu Koyamaen that are specifically designed for baking, lattes, and smoothies. These grades provide a robust tea flavor that stands up well to other ingredients.
