Kanayamidori is another Japanese tea cultivar that is primarily used for producing sencha and gyokuro teas. It was developed in the 1960s by crossing the Yabukita and the Shizu-Inzatsu cultivars, the same parent cultivars as Yamatomidori.

The leaves of Kanayamidori are slightly larger than those of Yamatomidori, with a vibrant green color and a straighter shape. The tea produced from this cultivar is known for its delicate yet complex flavor profile, with a hint of sweetness and a subtle astringency.

One of the unique characteristics of Kanayamidori is that it has a high level of amino acids, which contributes to its sweetness and umami flavor. The cultivar also has a high resistance to disease, making it a popular choice among tea producers in Japan.

In recent years, Kanayamidori has gained recognition for its high-quality tea and has been used in various tea competitions in Japan. It is also being used to produce high-quality matcha, which is a testament to its excellent flavor profile and versatility.

Overall, Kanayamidori is a well-respected tea cultivar that has contributed to the diverse and rich tea culture in Japan. Its delicate yet complex flavor profile and high resistance to disease make it a valuable asset to the Japanese tea industry.

MATCHA vs COFFEE

A Steady Boost

According to many studies, a cup of matcha contains less caffein than a cup of coffee. The natural L-theanine in matcha calms your mind and body while absorbing caffeine which gives you a focused 4-6 hour boost! Matcha provides a steady increase in energy and focus without sudden spikes or crashes like with coffee and energy drinks.
