NAKAI 102 Organic Specialty Matcha — Dual-Origin Kagoshima-Uji Blend

A rare dual-origin blend uniting the bold vitality of Kagoshima with the refined elegance of Uji (Kyoto). Limited to just 500kg per year. Two of Japan's greatest tea regions meet in a single cup of extraordinary complexity. Rich sweetness and slowly unfolding layers of umami.

Why NAKAI 102 Organic Specialty

NAKAI 102 represents the art of blending two of Japan's most distinguished matcha origins. Kagoshima's volcanic soil delivers mineral-rich depth, while Uji's centuries-old tencha tradition brings luminous refinement. This limited-production organic specialty matcha is stone-milled to preserve the nuance of both terroirs — a rare expression of Japanese matcha craftsmanship. JAS Organic certified.

Tasting Notes

Rich sweetness with layers of umami that slowly unfold. Elegant complexity with a clean, refined finish. Vibrant emerald color with a silky, full-bodied texture.

Terroir

ORIGIN · 土地
— volcanic spring water / 700 years of tradition / depth / refinement

Kirishima's 70% brings the mellow, mineral-rich umami of volcanic spring water and kuroboku soil — a depth formed over millennia. Uji's 30% contributes ooi-ka, the elegant seaweed-like fragrance that exists only in shade-grown tencha — the result of 700 years of covered cultivation.

— Okumidori / Saemidori

Two cultivars. Two dimensions. One harmony.

ROASTING · 火入れ
— gentle roasting / polish / clarity / craftsmanship

Hiire is the fire that polishes sweetness and brings the blend into serene balance, performed by artisans whose decades of experience define aroma, depth, and finish.

Tasting Notes

Milky umami opens with quiet, mellow depth, wrapped in creamy sweetness, settling into a long, resonant stillness that echoes gently — like a note sustained after the instrument has gone silent.

Top : Milky umami & creamy green — soft, mellow, unhurried
Mid : Ooi-ka elegance & volcanic depth — two sacred origins in one breath
Finish : Long quiet resonance — still, refined, lingering

Brewing Guide

Low temperature is strongly recommended. Below 60°C, Okumidori's milky umami and Saemidori's creamy sweetness emerge in their clearest, most elegant form. Hot water will lift Uji's ooi-ka — the delicate seaweed-like fragrance born of 700 years of shade cultivation.
