Kanbayashi Shunsho - Babamukashi 20g - Japanese Ceremonial Matcha

Babamukashi by Kanbayashi Shunsho is a high-quality matcha with a rich umami presence and a smooth, refined finish. Sourced from premium Uji-grown tencha leaves, this matcha offers a well-balanced sweetness with a hint of mellow astringency, making it perfect for usucha (thin tea) or a luxurious daily ritual.

The name Babamukashi traces back to Tokugawa Ieyasu, who favoured tea from the Kanbayashi family and called it "Babacha." As a reward, he granted them a tea garden in Wakamori, where the exclusive "Soboso" tea was produced—a name exclusive to the Kanbayashi family.

Renowned for its rich, balanced flavours and refined textures, the brand blends centuries-old craftsmanship with a commitment to quality, offering teas that embody Uji’s tradition and artistry.
