A multi-cultivar blend from Joyo, Uji, Kyoto: thin mouthfeel, clean finish, slight astringency that turns into a pleasant juiciness, smoky with mineral notes, fresh-cut grass, slightly salty with an ocean breeze quality, and hints of coco nibs and vanilla. At THB 875 per 30g, it is Heikisuien character at its most approachable. Chaseki was the first to introduce Heikisuien matcha to Thailand in 2021.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eAbout Chiyo No Sakae\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eChiyo No Sakae is part of our Ceremonial Matcha collection and is produced by Heikisuien in Joyo, Uji, Kyoto. It is the most complex blend in the Heikisuien range by cultivar count: six varieties - Yabukita, Samihidori, Ujihikari, Ujimidori, Saemidori, and Sayamakaori - each contributing a dimension that makes the whole greater than any one cultivar alone.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt this price point, Heikisuien's blending expertise is on full display. Six cultivars are not a shortcut - they are a deliberate architectural choice to achieve a balanced, multi-dimensional profile that shows freshness, minerality, light smokiness, and a clean, engaging astringency within a single 30g can. For those exploring Heikisuien for the first time, Chiyo No Sakae is the right starting point.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eTaste Profile\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMouthfeel:\u003c\/strong\u003e Thin, clean\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Clean\n\u003cstrong\u003eUmami:\u003c\/strong\u003e Moderate\n\u003cstrong\u003eAstringency:\u003c\/strong\u003e Slight, resolves into juiciness\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlavor Notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eChiyo No Sakae opens with a thin, clean body and a clean finish. Slight astringency meets the palate on entry, resolving quickly into a pleasant juiciness - active and lively rather than sharp. A subtle smokiness runs through the character, paired with mineral notes of chalk that give the matcha its distinctive structure. Fresh-cut grass adds brightness and a familiar green baseline. A slight saltiness extends through the mid-palate, accompanied by a clean ocean breeze quality - fresh and briny. Hints of coco nibs and vanilla drift across the finish, adding a gentle sweetness without weight. The overall impression is clean, structured, and distinctly Heikisuien in character.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eHow to Use Chiyo No Sakae\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBest suited for:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMatcha lattes (hot and iced)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUsucha\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIced and clear-style preparations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eChiyo No Sakae's clean finish, slight smokiness, and ocean breeze quality translate well across all three preparation styles. In lattes, the mineral and salty notes add structure and prevent the drink from tasting flat. In iced preparations, the fresh-cut grass and ocean breeze character are particularly vivid and refreshing. In usucha, the thin body produces a lighter, more refreshing bowl - a good daily option when the heavier richness of the koicha range isn't what the moment calls for.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eHow Chiyo No Sakae Compares\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eChiyo No Sakae is the entry point of the Heikisuien everyday range.
