Product Details
in japanese, okawari (お代わり) is a phrase commonly heard during a delicious meal — it means “seconds” or “refill”, as in asking for another serving from the host. it reflects a desire to return to something delicious, and that’s exactly the feeling this matcha evokes from the very first sip.
sourced from the mineral-rich fields of Yame, Fukuoka, Okawari is a bold and flavorful blend of multiple cultivars, carefully crafted for everyday enjoyment. its deep nutty character and savory umami richness create a satisfying usucha, while its strength and nuttiness also shine beautifully through milk in a latte. full-bodied and inviting, it’s a matcha to reach for again and again.

I've been trying out different brands of matcha and was looking specifically for a Canadian company to support. I drink it straight (usucha) and occasionally with a little bit of milk on top, and mostly iced. It is bold, smooth, has great umami and very little astringency. I love it. It is replacing my usual Ippodo order for sure as my go-to daily matcha.

I regularly order matcha from Japan (huge lover of Ippodo), having lived there for 3 years and having studied tea ceremony I can be a bit particular about my matcha so I'm nervous to try new companies - but due to the matcha shortage resulting in limited supplies, restock issues and and drastic price increases, I had heard fantastic things about Emeri's Okawari Ceremonial Matcha so decided to deviate from my normal order.
I am so glad I did, the flavor profile is exactly as described bold. nutty. roasty and I have absolutely been loving using this matcha powder to make matcha lattes. It is a beautiful vibrant bold green - and can even hold its flavor profile when paired with fruity matcha lattes (ex: mango matcha lattes or strawberry matcha lattes) to my great delight.
I recommend a ratio of 5g matcha / 50g 80*C temperature water / 225g milk ratio for a delicious & rich matcha latte <3
As a side note: As this matcha is less "grassy" and "umami" tasting with low astringency, I think it would be a *really* great matcha for beginners who are still getting into matcha.

this matcha is so different from others i tried, yet so delicious. it was my first yame matcha. it’s so toasty and nutty and perfect for the fall. it pairs so perfect with nutty syrups—i love toasted coconut in mine. you can taste the care they put into this. definitely my favourite matcha i’ve had so far. i used a 3g matcha to 30 ml water ratio!

I am new to matcha and was looking for a more nutty brand and this did it! Definitely worth the price and the fact you get 50g! Will be repurchasing.
