Bulk Matcha Special A by Yamamasa Koyamaen
$350.00 USD
Matcha Special "A" is the cafe-ready workhorse from Yamamasa Koyamaen, milled specifically for baristas and culinary professionals rather than the tea ceremony bowl. Bold, vibrant, and consistent batch after batch, it delivers a robust matcha flavor and vivid green color that holds up in milk, in baking, and at volume. From one of Uji's most established tea houses.
Why cafes choose Matcha Special A:
- Built for the milk pitcher: A robust, full-bodied flavor and vivid green color that doesn't fade into the background — whisk with 80–85°C water, adjust sweetness to taste, and it holds its character through hot or iced service.
- Batch-to-batch consistency: An ultra-fine, smooth-blending powder milled for reliability — no surprises between bags, which matters when your menu depends on it.
- Real yield numbers: 500g yields roughly 165 lattes at 3g each; 1kg yields roughly 330 — plan your cost per cup with confidence.
- More than a latte powder: Bakes cleanly into cakes and cookies, blends into sauces and glazes, and holds up in smoothies and frappés — produced without artificial colorants or additives.
- Best for: Specialty cafes building out a matcha program, bakeries incorporating matcha into pastry, and any kitchen that needs a dependable culinary-grade matcha at volume.
