We've paired our MP-01 ceremonial grade matcha from Kagoshima, Japan with our complete 8-piece matcha tea kit, so from the moment it arrives, there's nothing left to figure out.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMP-01 is the ideal introduction to ceremonial matcha. Rich in umami, balanced in bitterness, and bold enough to taste distinctly different from anything sold in a grocery store — it's the matcha that makes first-timers understand what the conversation is actually about. And because it's stone-milled to order, it arrives at peak freshness. Not months old. Ground for you.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe tea kit gives you everything needed to prepare it properly: a ceramic chawan (matcha bowl), a bamboo chasen (whisk), a chashaku (bamboo scoop), and the essential tools that turn preparation from a mystery into a ritual.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e— WHAT'S INCLUDED —\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e· MP-01 Ceremonial Grade Matcha — Kagoshima, Kyushu, Japan (30g \/ ~15–30 servings)\u003cbr\u003e   First flush · Stone-milled to order · Six cultivars · Bold umami character\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e· 8-Piece Matcha Tea Kit\u003cbr\u003e   Ceramic chawan · Bamboo chasen · Chashaku · Chasen kusenaoshi · Matcha sifter · Ceremonial tray · Linen tea cloth · Chasaku holder\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e— WHO IT'S FOR —\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Starter Set was built for three kinds of people: someone giving a gift to a curious friend who keeps talking about wanting to try real matcha; someone beginning their own daily practice and wanting to start with everything in place; or anyone who has only had café matcha and wants to know what the real thing actually tastes like.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAll sourced and paired to work together from day one.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e— HOW TO BREW —\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSift 1g of MP-01 into your warmed chawan.
