"This year’s limited-release blend charms in all the right ways - Smooth like white chocolate with all the buttery, nutty feels."

A special release from the 2026 harvest, this small-batch blend of Okumidori, Saemidori, and Yabukita comes from the misty hills of Yame, Fukuoka. Smooth and well-rounded, it offers a rich, layered flavour white chocolate, buttery, and gently sweet, with an aftertaste of cashew nuts and no trace of astringency.

Crafted exclusively from the first flush, this matcha delivers not just sweetness, but depth and nuance. The symbol for this blend is the Usagi, representing softness, grace, and quiet good fortune. Said to dwell on the moon in Japanese folklore, the Usagi felt like the perfect emblem for this limited Yame release-known for its gentle richness and smooth personality.

Each matcha tin includes a matching Usagi sticker and tasting notes card, inviting you to sip, learn, and savour the story behind the blend.

Saemidori, Okumidori and Yabukita from Yame, Fukuoka

100% Matcha Green Tea Powder
 
No added sugar or any other additives.

*Contains no nuts. The nutty flavour comes naturally from the matcha itself, developed by its unique cultivars and growing region.

A Journey Through Four Seasons

For our first Artist Collection, Sasa Alyssa takes Usagi, Tanuki, Kitsune and Neko on a journey through the seasons of Japan. Usagi rests beneath spring sakura, Tanuki joins a lively summer matsuri, Kitsune cycles through autumn leaves, and Neko plays in a snowy winter forest. Four little moments to discover across the signature range.

  • If you’re new to matcha, we recommend starting with our Yame Tanuki Blend (Blue Tins) it’s our best-seller and a crowd favourite for a reason. The flavour is nutty, buttery, and lightly umami, with no bitterness or astringency, making it perfect for everyday lattes or sipping straight.

    Looking for something extra buttery?

    Try our Yame Usagi Blend it has a richer chocolatey taste with a beautiful creamy finish.

    Feeling curious?

    We also offer seasonal blends and single cultivars for those who want to explore different matcha profiles and dive deeper into the matcha experience.

  • They’re both different, but equally beautiful! Yame (Blue Tins) is nutty, buttery, and has a popcorn-like finish, while Uji (Green Tins) is richer in umami with a more aromatic profile.

    Think of Yame as slightly sweeter, and Uji as a little more savoury.

  • All of our matcha at Anya Matcha is ceremonial grade, made from the first spring harvest (first flush) in Japan. It’s carefully harvested, processed and air-shipped to Australia to retain its freshness, vibrant colour, and smooth flavour.

Tastes very smooth and like white chocolate

The matcha is of good quality, tastes very smooth and like white chocolate. The price is quite high per gram, you can get koicha-grade matcha in Japan at this price, but giving this one full 5 stars as I love the notes in this one

I would describe the Yame Usagi blend as a smooth, chocolatey and velvety matcha. I love the fragrance of this matcha, it's so beautiful. This one has to be my favourite matcha I've tried from Anya so far!

The matcha that turns haters into addicts ✨

This is the one I give to family and friends who swear they hate matcha or simply aren’t fans of it. The flavour notes are absolutely delicious. The subtle white chocolate, sweet buttery nuttiness makes this one incredibly smooth, indulgent and wonderfully addictive. My absolute favourite product from this matcha brand and honestly, from every other matcha brand I’ve tried. I’ve tried all the major Aussie brands, and this one is still the standout for me. 🍵
Highly, highly recommend!!!

Love the taste of this premium quality matcha

Absolutely loving this matcha! The bright green color speaks for itself. It’s super smooth, not bitter at all, and leaves a rich, roasted, slightly sweet aftertaste. It survived the flight from AU to SG perfectly despite temperature concerns. Tasting matcha bought with miles—cheers to a great find!

YUMMMe Usagi 😍

This matcha blend is, without a doubt, my absolute favourite… not just from this store, but from any brand I’ve ever tried. The blend is impeccable. Beautiful natural sweetness and subtle chocolatey notes and something that is reminiscent of a freshly baked French croissant. I’m completely obsessed. I couldn’t recommend it more. Grab it before it sells out. You’ll regret missing out!

So velvety

This matcher is so velvety, it’s tasty, very green. I really like a strong Matcha so I added about one and a half teaspoons of Matcha and it’s perfect with the tiniest bit of honey

Perfect first matcha for beginners, exceeded my expectations

As someone completely new to making matcha at home, but who has always enjoyed ordering it from cafés, I wasn’t sure what to expect. This was honestly the perfect one to start with. The flavour was incredibly smooth, creamy, and easy to drink with no harsh bitterness. I personally prefer my matcha on the sweeter side, and this blend was absolutely amazing for that. It tasted so rich and comforting, and making it at home felt way less intimidating than I expected. I’m already planning to come back and try more from this store because this one set the bar ridiculously high.
