Shikō Uji 4A

Shikō (至高) - First Harvest

Shikō represents the pinnacle of Uji craftsmanship — our most vibrant, refined ceremonial matcha, selected from the finest first-harvest leaves of the season.

Shade-grown in the historic tea fields of Uji, Japan, these tender spring leaves are carefully hand-picked at peak freshness, gently steamed, and traditionally stone-milled into an ultra-fine powder of luminous emerald brilliance.

The result is a matcha of extraordinary depth — intensely vibrant in color, silk-like in texture, and naturally sweet with layered umami complexity. There is no sharp bitterness — only clarity, balance, and a lingering clean finish.

Flavor Profile

• Luminous emerald green

• Silky, velvety mouthfeel

• Naturally sweet with deep umami

• Exceptionally smooth, refined finish

Designed for traditional preparation, Shikō is best enjoyed whisked with intention — though it elevates refined lattes into something truly unforgettable.

This is matcha at its highest expression.
