Matcha 01 Extrait 80g
“Extrait”
Signature Matcha & Tea Collection
MATCHA 01 – EXTRAIT is the flagship matcha of Ginza Fuka, created to express the greatest possible depth, intensity, and complexity within a single bowl.
There is no fixed origin and no permanent recipe.
For each season and harvest, we select exceptional Japanese matcha for its aroma, depth, umami, sweetness, and refined bitterness. The composition may change as the tea changes. The purpose does not.
The name Extrait means extract, or essence.
The first impression is dense and vivid. Fresh green aromatics give way to concentrated umami and deep vegetal richness. A restrained sweetness appears beneath the surface, held together by an elegant bitterness that gives the tea its structure.
The finish is long, layered, and unmistakably matcha.
Prepared simply with water, Extrait reveals its greatest clarity. At higher concentrations, its density becomes almost tactile, allowing sweetness, bitterness, and umami to unfold slowly across the palate.
Pure, concentrated, uncompromising.
This is matcha in its most complete form.
