Uji (Kyoto) has older heritage and a slightly more astringent profile. Yame (Fukuoka) is younger as a matcha region but produces matcha with deeper umami and a rounder finish. Most serious daily drinkers find Yame more drinkable on its own.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy is first-harvest matcha worth more?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nFirst-harvest (ichibancha) leaves contain the most L-theanine, chlorophyll, and amino acids. They grow slowly during cool spring weather and accumulate the compounds responsible for matcha's bright color, calm energy, and umami sweetness. Later harvests are coarser and more astringent.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan I use this in a latte?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nYou can, but milk and sweeteners mask the umami this matcha is prized for. Use a culinary-grade matcha for lattes; reserve this tin for traditional bowl-whisked usucha.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy does this matcha cost more than a 30g culinary tin?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nFirst-harvest single-origin Yame leaves are limited in supply, hand-picked, slow-shaded for 3+ weeks, and stone-milled in small batches.
