Unsui (雲水) is Maruyasu's summer-exclusive ceremonial matcha — a single-origin batch grown in Kōka City, Shiga Prefecture rather than the usual Uji hills, blending the Saemidori, Tsuyuhikari, and Samidori cultivars. A stronger roast than Maruyasu's standard lineup gives it a buttery, nougat-like aroma and a nutty walnut-and-cashew flavor that holds up whether whisked hot or over ice. Available June through September, while stock lasts.
Why Unsui?
- Nutty, dessert-like aroma: A stronger roast draws out notes of walnut, cashew, and sweet nougat rarely found in ceremonial matcha.
- Silky, umami finish: Light-bodied and balanced, with a prominent umami and a silky, creamy finish.
- Hot or cold: One of the few ceremonial matchas built to taste equally good whisked hot or prepared iced.
- Made to order: Sourced fresh from Maruyasu after ordering rather than kept in stock, so expect a short lead time. Available from June to September, while stock lasts.
- Best for: Usucha drinkers who want something richer and nuttier than a standard ceremonial, and collectors of Maruyasu's seasonal releases.
