Yame Kirari 31 Matcha 100g
A vivid, expressive single-cultivar matcha from Yame, Japan. First-harvest Kirari 31 with jade-green color, rich umami, and a strong presence in premium lattes and sweets.
Why We Recommend Kirari 31
Kirari 31 is recommended for customers who want matcha with stronger visual impact and a more expressive flavor. Its vivid jade-green color and umami-forward taste remain noticeable even when mixed with milk, cream, or sugar.
Flavor Profile
Rich and expressive with strong umami, soft sweetness, a refreshing finish, and vivid color. Kirari is especially useful when the appearance of the drink matters as much as the flavor.
The flavor profile is based on MatchaJP's tasting evaluation and is intended as a general guide. Flavor perception may vary depending on brewing method and personal preference.
Why 100g Is a Smart Choice
The 100g size is ideal for regular matcha drinkers, home baristas, and customers who use matcha in drinks or desserts. It offers better value per gram than smaller tins.
