Mikazuki no Shiro – Ceremonial Matcha
Mikazuki no Shiro (“White Crescent Moon”) is a graceful ceremonial-grade matcha, admired for its soft, refreshing taste and smooth finish. Stone-milled from carefully selected shade-grown tencha, it offers a delicate balance of gentle umami and light sweetness, making it especially suitable for thin tea (usucha) in the Japanese tea ceremony. Its pale, elegant flavor profile reflects the beauty of a crescent moon—refined, serene, and approachable.
