“Eisai was the bhudist monk who brought the original camellia sinensis tea plant to japan. Centuries later the japanese had developed their own ceremony with strong, powdered green tea called "matcha." This is the flavor for brilliant, green tea tones.”

Extended Description:
Flavorah’s Eisai Tea is inspired by the esteemed Japanese Gyokuro style — one of the highest grades of shade-grown green tea. Unlike light or floral tea profiles, this flavor is rich and earthy with grassy undertones and subtle bitterness. It's perfect for culinary applications requiring an authentic green tea base with depth and complexity.
Suggested Uses:
Great for matcha-inspired desserts, green tea ice cream, artisanal chocolates, tea-based syrups, or culinary glazes. Pairs naturally with vanilla bean, honey, rice, white chocolate, or citrus zest.
Storage Instructions:
Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain flavor integrity.
Safety Notes:
This is a concentrated flavoring and should be diluted before use. Keep out of reach of children and pets.
Disclaimer:
Intended for use in food and beverage applications only. Not suitable for direct consumption without dilution.
