There is up to a 2 week ship time for the Forest Dew currently due to an increased in demand. We get our matcha ground and shipped fresh each month and have had to place additional orders to keep up with orders. Thank you for being patient.
We are so pleased to offer Blue Willow private label matcha! After spending years traveling Japan and searching for a high quality, organic, ceremonial grade matcha, up to our standards, we finally sourced an exceptional organic Matcha, which we now use for lattes in our shop.
Introducing Forest Dew: a robust, yet smooth ceremonial grade matcha stone ground from five cultivars in Kirishima, Kyushu. This matcha can be made into usucha for a lively, grassy matcha bowl, or can be made into a latte. The flavor is strong enough to stand up to the addition of milk and/or sweeteners without getting overpowered, and has very little astringency.
We switched to this for matcha lattes in our shop and were just featured on the cover of the SF Chronicle Food and Drink newspaper for best Bay Area Matcha!
We recommend this matcha for usucha (thin tea) or lattes. You can experiment with the thickness you desire as well.
Process: Organic Region: Kagoshima, Japan Harvest: 2023
This spring, we made two sourcing trips to China. We brought back many favorites and several new teas. However, we also found some teas that were in extremely limited supply and/or were too pricey to carry in our regular lineup. These teas we bought small quantities of to ONLY offer in these boxes.
Introducing: the 2024 Best Of Box. Inside are 4 teas only available here. Each tea has about 5 gongfu servings, depending on how you steep it. Each tea is sealed in a biodegradable bag, with steeping recommendations and packed inside a gift box.
2008 Aged Tieguanyin | 1oz. | Crafted by Master Zhou, this organic oolong is medium roasted and has been aged 16 years. Each year, he sets aside some of his favorite tea from the year's harvest to be aged and brings out a little to share each consecutive year. Competition Grade Longjing | 1oz. | This Pre-Ming Longjing won an award for best flavor in the Longjing category this spring. The small leaves offer a soft, yet vibrant cup of a truly spectacular Dragonwell. Charcoal Roasted Ao Fu | 0.5oz. | This is the personal favorite of Master Lin, who crafts all of the DanCong teas we carry. Ao Fu (Barley Aroma) produces the smallest volume of all of his cultivars and the flavor is unlike any other he offers. Dong Ding Shui Xian | 1oz. | Similar to last year's "Honey Roasted", this Shui Xian cultivar is grown on Dong Ding Mountain, heavily bug bitten to enhance the honey aroma, and roasted to perfection. Perfectly balanced and a special treat.
*We only have enough tea to make 50 boxes, so these are extremely limited*
