Homecoming Matcha's Uji Blend is an ode to the birthplace of Japanese matcha, and a celebration of their incredible partner, a heritage 10th-generation tea farm in the heart of the matcha capital! This matcha blend comes from hand-picked (tezumi 手摘み) leaves during the spring harvest, and is crafted to have robust depth and umami in mind to shine through milk and sweetener. A bulk bag for daily enjoyment, Uji Blend is their house favorite and go-to for lattes and creations!

Ingredients: 100% stone-milled matcha
Preparation Tips:
- bloom whisk in hot water before whisking to soften bamboo tines
- water should be 70-80°C for optimal foam, flavor extraction, and to not scorch matcha
- use 3g of matcha/hojicha with 45-50ml of water
- wash and dry the whisk after use, storing on the whisk stand to maintain shape and longevity
Storage Tips:
Matcha is super delicate, and should be stored airtight in cool, dry place and away from light to keep optimal freshness. We kindly ask you not to store in transparent containers.
Opened matcha should be used within 1 month. Unopened matcha can be kept in the fridge for 6 months. Anything beyond that time frame risks matcha deterioration in quality and taste.
