Kyo Hayashiya - Matsu no Yowai Matcha

Kyo Hayashiya Matcha – Matsu no Yowai

20g Ceremonial-Grade Japanese Matcha Powder

Matsu-no-Yowai (松の齢), meaning “Longevity of the Pine”, is one of Kyo Hayashiya’s signature ceremonial matcha blends, crafted with the quiet elegance of Kyoto’s tea tradition. With its graceful balance and approachable depth, it invites both seasoned connoisseurs and first-time drinkers to experience the serenity of a well-prepared bowl.

Taste & Character

Matsu-no-Yowai reveals a gentle sweetness at first sip, unfolding into layers of tender umami and soft vegetal notes. Its profile is refined rather than forceful—think of young pine needles touched with morning dew, carrying freshness without sharpness. The finish lingers as a smooth, calming aftertaste.

Aroma

Delicate and understated, the aroma evokes the quiet atmosphere of a moss garden after rain—green, fresh, and slightly earthy, with a trace of roasted chestnut warmth. Whisked, it blossoms into a soft, embracing fragrance that soothes as much as it awakens.

Texture & Finish

Stone-ground to an ultrafine powder, Matsu-no-Yowai whisks into a delicate, airy froth that glides with silky ease across the palate. Light in body yet refined in presence, it leaves a soft, velvety finish that lingers with quiet grace, enhancing its gentle character without ever overwhelming the senses.
