Description

Named Kochi (東風), meaning “eastern wind,” this ceremonial matcha reflects the sense of renewal associated with the early harvest. Selected from the first flush, Kochi captures the freshness and vibrancy of young spring leaves, offering a bright, clear expression in the bowl.

Smooth and well-balanced, Kochi opens with gentle umami and a natural sweetness that feels light yet composed. Its lively character makes it especially suited for traditional whisked preparation, while its clarity and depth also lend themselves well to a more refined matcha latte.

About the New Packaging
The central motif of our new packaging is the mizuhiki knot. Mizuhiki is a traditional Japanese decorative cord, used to mark moments of gratitude, respect, and connection. On our packaging, it serves as a quiet symbol of these values.

To us, the mizuhiki represents the relationships that shape our tea, from the growers who cultivate the leaves, to our own team who carefully finish and pack them, and ultimately to those who enjoy them. Each knot reflects intention and care, reinforcing the idea that tea is not simply a product, but a connection between people, place, and time.

Kochi Ceremonial Matcha

I drink Yui as my daily matcha and Mizuki on special days. Wanted to try Kochi because of its lower price point and because I was curious. Kochi is a wonderful matcha. It has a smooth, creamy body. Easy to whisk into a thick froth. Just the right amount of umami for my tastes. A bit more complex than my usual choice of Yui. I like it! Will be purchasing again.

I made lattes for my family members and they all really liked this powder and I finished it in 4 days. I found it to be naturally sweet and overall really liked the way it tasted.

Kochi Cermonial Matcha

I start every morning with this matcha. It has a smooth, balanced taste and has a lovely bright green and "creamy" froth when whisked. A perfect, gentle way to start my day.

Superb.

Great matcha for the price!

This was my first time trying matcha from Sugimoto, so I didn’t have any expectations going in. I was pleasantly surprised—it’s smooth, vibrant, and tastes great, especially considering the price. I’ll definitely be purchasing more in the future!

The best matcha I have had. Recommend...

Ceremonial Green Tea

The smooth, sweet flavor and the rich deep green color of this tea connotes a superior product from Sugimoto. Thank you, you have earned my trust.

Magnificent flavor!

The order was amazingly packed, received tea samples and a lovely note <3 This matcha flavor really resembles its high quality. Loved it. Will definitely be trying more types of matcha of this brand.

Koicha-worthy

Creamy and soft with notes of brown rice and hay. Made as koicha, it's more reminiscent of 100% dark chocolate.
