The sassy Lady from Fukuoka who dares you to taste beyond sweetness. 

Bold. Intelligent. Unapologetically complex. With her sophisticated bitter-cocoa notes and indomitable spirit.

How she tastes: 
Don't let her unassuming appearance fool you. Lady Fuku is a risk-taker who rewards the brave. In Usucha, she greets you clean and snappy, then BAM - a smooth wave of bitterness kicks in, filled with light umami that commands attention. But slow down, pay attention, and she reveals her secret: hidden sweetness made more precious by the bitter notes that frame it.

Like a fine wine or specialty coffee, Lady Fuku isn't trying to please everyone. She's for those who understand that true matcha character comes from embracing all edges of flavour. Her light body carries a refreshing, satisfying bitterness that wakes up your senses and sharpens your mind.

In lattes, her personality softens but never surrenders. Clean nutty-cocoa undertones emerge, creating a chocolate-like depth that's deep yet approachable. The bitterness pairs beautifully with milk, creating balance without losing her edge.

Best ways to enjoy:
For the experienced palate, Lady Fuku in usucha is a contemplative journey - that initial clean impression followed by waves of complex bitter-umami makes deep work sessions sharper and serious meetings more focused. She's the matcha you reach for when you need that refreshing kick of flavour to brighten your mind.

For beginners or casual enjoyment, she transforms in lattes into an accessible gateway to sophisticated matcha. The milk tames her sass just enough while those nutty, cocoa notes create an almost mocha-like experience unique among ceremonial grades.

In cold brew, she's like extra-strong green tea with attitude. For baking, her vibrant colour and boldness ensure your creations pack a proper matcha punch.
