ADMARI MODERN MATCHA COLLECTION
ADMARI MODERN MATCHA COLLECTION
Introducing the 2026 Admari Modern Matcha Collection: two exceptional Japanese matchas from a fifth-generation producer with more than 150 years of tea-making history. Admari has been sourcing their teas since 2008.
Both are made from shade-grown Japanese green tea and offer the silky, rounded texture and beautiful balance we look for in high-quality matcha, expressed in distinctly different ways. Ritual is creamy and oceanic, with gentle sweetness, deep green savoriness, and a soft, lingering finish. Ceremony is floral and umami-rich, with lifted aromatics, fresh sweetness, a full rounded body, and a long, refined finish. Together, they offer two beautifully distinct expressions of contemporary Japanese matcha for pure drinking, daily ritual, and modern preparation.
The collection brings together first- and second-harvest matcha from Kagoshima and Shizuoka, composed from Asanoka, Yabukita, and Tsuyuhikari cultivars. Ritual draws its character from the second harvest, developing a creamy, oceanic depth and beautifully rounded presence in the bowl. Ceremony, from the first harvest, is more aromatic and floral, with pronounced umami and refined sweetness—the style of matcha many drinkers seek when looking for a ceremonial matcha intended to be whisked simply with water.
Our matcha is milled in regular six-to-eight-week cycles, allowing us to work with fresh Japanese matcha powder throughout the year and keep the focus on freshness, character, balance, and the quality of each bowl.

Ritual
Ritual is deeply creamy, silky, and round, with an oceanic character that brings together fresh green sweetness, savory depth, and a clean mineral quality reminiscent of sea air. The texture is especially compelling: soft and enveloping across the palate, with enough structure to give the tea presence without disrupting its smoothness. Its umami is integrated rather than dominant, allowing the creaminess and gentle sweetness to remain at the center of the cup. The finish is long, supple, and quietly savory, encouraging another sip. Beautiful whisked simply with water, Ritual also carries its character confidently over ice or with milk, making it an exceptionally versatile matcha for a modern daily practice.

Ceremony
Ceremony is floral, umami-rich, and beautifully expressive, with a lifted aromatic quality that becomes immediately apparent in the warmed bowl. Fresh green notes and soft floral aromatics lead into a full, silky body, where pronounced umami is balanced by natural sweetness and a refined vegetal freshness. The texture remains rounded and smooth throughout, giving the tea substance while preserving its elegance and clarity. Its finish is long and composed, carrying both floral lift and savory depth well beyond the first sip. Ceremony is particularly compelling prepared simply with water, where its aroma, texture, and layered umami can unfold fully, while its generous body also allows it to remain distinctive in more contemporary preparations.
