Let customers speak for us
I've tried the three Nakamura Tokichi kabusechas and this is my favourite. It has a unique and oddly delicious flavour profile.
I visited Tokichi Honten in Uji in 2033 and 2025 and loved their products, especially the Matcha. I was so happy that they have an online store where I can continue to order high quality authentic matcha. This is my second time ordering online. The order came well packaged. I will definitely continue to order from them so I can continue to enjoy the taste of Japan in Canada till I visit them again.
I have been enjoying all green tea from you☺︎
Thank you for the fast overseas shipping. I liked the Sho-No-Mukashi very much with the pleasant soft and rounded taste.

I bought two bags when I was in Tokyo. When I ran out I knew this is the only matcha I want to have. I am a customer for life!
