About this product

First-grade character in the cup
  • The flavour sits on the softer side of matcha: green, leafy and subtly sweet at the finish.
  • Its fine powder texture is designed to suspend in water, giving the cup its familiar cloudy body.
  • The bright green shade comes from tea plants kept under cover before harvest, a traditional step that deepens the leaf colour.
  • Ceremonial grade suits simple preparation, whisked with water rather than hidden in baking or sweet drinks.
  • It turns a short pause into a small ritual: bowl, whisk, steam, and a few quiet moments before the day moves on.
Japanese organic matcha, stone-ground

The tea leaves are shaded in the weeks before picking, then steamed to stop oxidation and ground into a fine powder. This is the traditional matcha format: the whole leaf is taken into the bowl, rather than steeped and removed like loose tea.

How to prepare it simply

Spoon a small amount into a matcha bowl or wide cup, add hot water, and whisk until the surface turns smooth and foamy. A bamboo whisk gives the most familiar texture, though a small kitchen whisk can still create a soft froth.

Enjoy it plain first. This lets the ceremonial character come through clearly, especially the green, savoury taste and the lightly sweet aftertaste.

A taste made for quiet attention

Matcha has a particular presence in the mouth: fine, green and softly textured, with a savoury edge rather than the brisk clarity of an infused tea. In Japan, ceremonial matcha is closely tied to chanoyu, the tea ceremony, where preparing and serving the bowl is treated as a careful act of attention, hospitality and seasonal awareness.

Common questions

Is this best for drinking plain or for recipes?
This ceremonial matcha is best whisked with hot water and enjoyed on its own. Culinary matcha is usually the better choice for baking, lattes and sweet preparations.
Why is matcha a powder rather than loose leaves?
Matcha is made by grinding green tea leaves into a fine powder. Instead of steeping and removing the leaf, you whisk the powder directly into water.
Does it contain caffeine?
Yes. Matcha is made from green tea leaves, which naturally contain caffeine.
