Premium Wakocha, Japanese Black Tea Powder, 50g

In the misty hills just outside Kyoto, Japan, tea farmers craft something rare — Wakocha, a Japanese black tea that reveals the elegant side of oxidation. While the region is best known for green tea, small-scale producers have perfected the delicate transformation of select tea cultivars into a refined black tea unlike any other.

This premium wakocha is gently withered for over 16 hours and fully oxidized, resulting in a soft amber hue and a naturally sweet, fruity aroma with notes of stone fruit, honey, and subtle spice. Unlike the strong tannic profile of South Asian-style black teas, wakocha is mellow and nuanced, with minimal bitterness and a clean finish.

Now in a finely ground powdered form, wakocha offers new possibilities in the kitchen — no steeping needed. Its smooth flavour and delicate complexity make it a favourite among dessert chefs and tea professionals alike.

Wakocha Powder works well in:

• Lattes, smoothies, and milk teas
• Ganaches, pastry creams, and mousses
• Ice creams, sorbets, and custards
• Refined baked goods like chiffon, castella, and sables
• Dessert sauces and syrups
