Product Details
Niko Ceremonial Matcha is a first-harvest, single-origin Yabukita from Kyoto, Japan, made 100% exclusively from ichibancha leaves — the youngest and most delicate of the season. Carefully shade-grown to enhance chlorophyll and L-theanine, Niko presents a vibrant green color and an elegant, refined character. The flavor leans more floral and aromatic, with soft notes of spring greens and a gentle sweetness, offering a lighter, cleaner profile with minimal bitterness..
Smooth and well-balanced, Niko finishes creamy and refreshing, making it an excellent choice for traditional usucha and an approachable ceremonial matcha for daily enjoyment. It is also suitable for koicha, where its clean structure and gentle sweetness create a rich, delightful experience. Its aromatic, clean profile also makes it perfect for refreshing drinks such as iced matcha, sparkling matcha, coconut water blends, and fruit-infused bevera

Definitely an upgrade on what I was using before, the color looks much nicer and tastes really smooth on its own
Light, floral, and really easy to drink — perfect for a more delicate, everyday matcha. I usually reach for Mizuki when I want something more intense, but Niko has its place.
So good!
Love the color, very green! Taste great too, no bitterness 👍🏻
A beautifully balanced matcha with a memorable floral aroma that really stands out. It's smooth and very beginner friendly, yet still feels high quality and fairly priced. I've been making matcha at home for a couple of years and still consider myself a beginner, and this one is easy to enjoy every time.
I originally bought this for health to introduce to my relatives who have high cholesterol. I didn’t expect to enjoy it as much as I do, really calming and easy to drink on its own, and now it’s become part of my routine
I've been enjoying this matcha daily - gentle, refined in flavor, and it works beautifully whether I'm making traditional tea or a latte.
Loving how smooth and clean the taste is — lightly floral with a natural sweetness and zero bitterness.
