Matcha, like champagne, is crafted from specific cultivars, each contributing unique flavors. Sorate offers four cultivars: Yabukita (balanced, vibrant green), Samidori (deep green, mild), Asahi (rare, rich, creamy), and Okumidori (umami, bright green).
Single Cultivar matcha showcases one cultivar's traits, preferred by enthusiasts. Blended Cultivar matcha combines multiple cultivars for a balanced flavor, appealing to a broader audience. At Sorate, our diverse matchas highlight these unique flavors and qualities for a distinctive matcha experience.
Great flavor and quality. Fast shipping. I would get it again!
I went to their shop in NYC and tried their house matcha for the first time, two hours later I was back for another cup, and one week later I ordered their matcha so I could have it back home in Texas. It was amazing 😅
Flavour of the hojicha is deep and roasty, which I love! This is becoming my new favourite hojicha powder
