Kyo Hayashiya - Oimatsu Matcha 40g

Kyo Hayashiya Matcha – Oimatsu

40g Ceremonial-Grade Japanese Matcha Powder

Oimatsu (老松), meaning “The Ancient Pine”, embodies the quiet dignity and enduring grace of Japan’s tea tradition. Carefully shaded and stone-milled, this ceremonial-grade matcha carries a serene depth that recalls the stillness of a pine forest—rooted, timeless, and balanced. It is a tea that invites reflection and mindfulness with every sip.

Taste & Character

Oimatsu reveals a smooth, rounded umami with gentle layers of sweetness that deepen gradually on the palate. Its flavour carries the quiet strength of mature greens—fresh yet earthy—with faint nutty undertones and a calm, lingering finish. It is harmonious and contemplative rather than bold, making it ideal for refined daily practice.

Aroma

Its fragrance is subtle and grounding—green and resinous, with a whisper of earthiness, like pine needles after rain. Once whisked, it softens into a warm, steady aroma that comforts as much as it refreshes.

Texture & Finish

Finely stone-milled, Oimatsu whisks into a soft, silken froth with a refined lightness. On the palate, it flows smoothly with an elegant weight, finishing with a velvety sweetness that lingers gently without heaviness.
