Matcha Biwa no Shiro

In the Kanbayashi Shunsho usucha portfolio, Biwa no Shiro stands out as a high-quality usucha. Named after one of the seven tea gardens established by Shogun Ashikaga Yoshimitsu, a known admirer of Uji tea and the creator of Kyoto's Golden Pavilion, this tea reflects the shogun's legacy.

Biwa no Shiro exudes an irresistible, sweet milk caramel fragrance with a complex, multi-layered flavor and a silky, indulgent texture. As an usucha, it brings forward rich notes of macadamia and cashew, layered with a deeper, woodsy tone reminiscent of sandalwood. This subtle woodsy dimension adds a unique depth, with a sweet, nutty aftertaste that lingers beautifully.
