Shogun Matcha by Senchasou - 30g tin
Bold Ceremonial-Grade Matcha from Uji, Kyoto | Crafted by Senchasou
Embodying the strength and presence of the mythical lion guardian, Shishi Matcha delivers a bold, full-bodied matcha experience rooted in the heritage of Uji, Kyoto. Carefully produced by Senchasou, a respected family-run tea maker, this ceremonial-grade matcha is ideal for those who appreciate depth, richness, and authenticity in every bowl.
The name “Shishi” (獅子) refers to the protective lion-dogs of Japanese temples—symbols of courage, purity, and sacred energy. Reflecting this spirit, Shishi Matcha features a deep green hue, robust umami, and a slightly earthy finish that gives it a powerful presence without being overwhelming. It's a matcha that stands on its own—perfect for traditional preparation or creative lattes.

Frequently asked questions
DOES MATCHA EXPIRED OR PASSED ITS BEST DATE?
Matcha does not “expire”. The date on the can is the manufacturer’s best before date, which is the manufacturer's suggested date of when the matcha will taste at its peak umami.
How fresh is our matcha?
- All our matcha is freshly picked from most time.
- Their shelf life follows the manufacturer's guide, which varies from 3 to 12 months (mostly: 6–10 months).
- If a product’s BBD date is very close or part of a promotion, we clearly label it as a separate variant so you can choose knowingly.
How should I store my matcha?
- Before BBF date: Store in a cool (<25°C) and dry place, or in the fridge.
- Closer to BBF date (around 2 weeks before): Move to the freezer to maintain umami and greenness flavour.
- After BBF date: You can keep it in the freezer and enjoy for a few extra months.
- Tip: Once you take it out of the freezer for use, return it immediately to avoid moisture affecting the umami.
