Mr. Ito Confetti Kyoto Uji Matcha Sable

Within the Confetti series — Ito Biscuits’ premium line of baked goods, made for the moments worth celebrating — the Kyoto stands slightly apart.

Where the checker is a study in geometry and texture, the Kyoto is a study in a single, extraordinary ingredient: Uji matcha, sourced exclusively from Marusou, a long-established specialist tea merchant in Kyoto’s famed Uji district.

Uji has been synonymous with the finest Japanese tea for over eight centuries. The region’s particular geography — cool air, morning mists rolling off the river, and soil cultivated across countless generations — produces matcha of a quality that specialists travel from across Japan to obtain.

Marusou, rooted in that tradition, supplies only Kyoto-grown Uji matcha, and it is this matcha — used generously, without dilution or blending — that gives each sablé its vivid character: a deep, grassy fragrance, a clean and genuine bitterness, and a color that speaks immediately of quality and care.

The sablé itself is tender and crumbly, with a fine, melt-in-the-mouth texture that dissolves gently on the tongue, releasing the full depth of the matcha as it goes.

It is a delicate biscuit in the French tradition, restrained and refined — nothing added that would compete with the matcha, nothing removed that would diminish it.

Between two sablés sits a smooth white chocolate cream, chosen not for sweetness but for its quiet mellow richness, which rounds out the natural bitterness of the matcha without softening it into something less interesting.

The two work together in the way that matcha and milk have always worked together in Japan — each making the other taste more fully like itself.

Individually wrapped and arriving six to a box, Confetti Kyoto is equally at home as a personal treat, a thoughtful gift, or a small, deliberate moment of indulgence.
