Matcha is finely ground powdered green tea made from specially grown leaves that are shaded before harvest to boost chlorophyll and amino acids. It’s whisked with hot water to create a vibrant, frothy drink packed with antioxidants and calm energy.

Our matcha is sourced from Japan’s best tea regions. Our first collection is from Yame, Fukuoka.

Ceremonial-grade matcha is the highest quality of matcha, crafted for drinking pure without any additives. It’s made from the youngest, finest tea leaves, giving it a vibrant green colour, smooth texture, and rich umami taste.

To keep your matcha vibrant and flavourful, store it in an airtight container in a cool, dark place away from heat, light, and moisture (to prevent oxidation). Proper storage helps maintain its colour, taste, and quality of your matcha!

Refrigerating your matcha is a great way to keep it fresh — especially before opening the airtight seal. We highly recommend storing unopened matcha in the fridge or freezer to help preserve its flavour and colour. However, once opened, matcha becomes sensitive to moisture and smells — especially in a fridge shared with food. If you will refrigerate, make sure it’s an odour-free fridge, or place the matcha tin inside a zip-lock bag or airtight container for double protection. Otherwise, a cool, dark cupboard works best to preserve its colour, aroma, and taste.

If you’ve stored your matcha in the fridge, let it return to room temperature before opening the tin. This helps prevent moisture from affecting the powder.

Single-cultivar matcha, like our Seimei and Okumidori varieties, is made from one specific type of tea plant. This ensures a pure, distinct flavor that highlights the unique characteristics of each tea variety.

A typical serving of 2-4g contains about 38–176 mg of caffeine per cup (1 g contains around 19–44 mg) of caffeine— similar to a cup of coffee but with a smoother, longer-lasting energy boost thanks to the presence of L-theanine.

For comparison, an espresso shot contains around 63 mg of caffeine, and a standard cup of coffee has 80–100 mg.

Yes! Drinking matcha daily is safe for most people. However, if you're sensitive to caffeine, we recommend starting with one cup per day to see how your body responds to the caffeine and L-theanine balance.

Matcha is made from finely ground whole tea leaves, meaning you consume the entire leaf and get all of its nutrients. Unlike regular green tea, where the leaves are steeped and then discarded, matcha offers a more concentrated form of antioxidants, vitamins, and minerals.

The shade-growing process before harvest increases the chlorophyll and amino acid levels in tea leaves, contributing to matcha's signature umami flavour.

Taste variations depend on factors like cultivar, region & terroir, harvest timing, and processing methods.
