Hoshi Hana Matcha: The Signature of Cha Kobo
The Origin: Where Quality Meets Tradition
At Cha Kobo, we believe exceptional matcha begins with an uncompromising commitment to the source. Our signature blend, Hoshi Hana Matcha, is born in the revered tea region of Shizuoka, Japan.
This is no accident. Shizuoka is an exceptional terroir, nourished by the pure mountain air and positioned beneath the iconic Mount Fuji. It's a region where the art of tea making is a sacred, centuries-old tradition.
Our founders personally journeyed here to work hand-in-hand with master Japanese producers. We are committed to preserving this craft, ensuring our matcha is grown, processed, stone-ground, and packaged entirely on-site. The result is a vibrant, potent powder that adheres to the highest standard: 100% Made in Japan.
The Matcha: A Sensory Experience
Hoshi Hana translates to "Star Flower"—a name chosen to reflect the exceptional brightness, rarity, and beauty of this premium blend.
- Taste Profile: Expect a powerful, well-rounded flavor with notes of rich umami and a smooth, lingering sweetness. Its clean, vibrant profile is ideal for traditional whisking and sophisticated culinary applications.
