Wakatake Matcha Powder by Marukyu Koyamaen
Wakatake is a premium culinary-grade matcha powder crafted by Marukyu Koyamaen, one of Japan's most celebrated tea producers. The name "Wakatake" means young bamboo, a fitting tribute to the powder's fresh, lively character and vibrant green hue.
Made from 100% pure tea leaves, it delivers a clean, well-balanced flavor profile: a gentle umami, a touch of natural sweetness, and a crisp, refreshing finish that lingers pleasantly.
As the highest-ranked culinary-grade matcha in Marukyu Koyamaen's lineup, Wakatake bridges the gap between everyday cooking matcha and ceremonial-grade quality. Its vivid color and complex aroma make it a natural choice for desserts, baked goods, ice cream, lattes, and any recipe where you want matcha to be the star of the show.
Marukyu Koyamaen's reputation speaks for itself. The company has claimed the Minister of Agriculture, Forestry, and Fishery Award at Japan's National Tea Competition several times, and their Tenju matcha was officially recognized as the best in Japan in 2020. Wakatake reflects that same commitment to excellence in every tin.
