This ceremonial-grade matcha from Japan is a green tea made from shade-grown leaves. After harvest, the leaves are slowly stone-ground into a fine powder, so your cup contains every valuable component of the tea leaf — it is not strained out, the powder itself is whisked with water to become the tea. Ceremonial grade means it is made from the finest, youngest leaves, resulting in a gently sweet, umami character with no bitterness.
Flavour Profile
Smooth, silky, slightly sweet and creamy, with clean umami notes (the fifth taste — a full, broth-like depth). The colour is a brilliant, vivid emerald green, one of the hallmarks of high-quality ceremonial matcha. A pleasant, slightly sweet aftertaste lingers on the palate.
How to Enjoy
Perfect for morning rituals, afternoon focused work or mindful moments. The caffeine in matcha is balanced by the amino acid L-theanine, which delivers slower, steadier energy and a calm alertness — without the sudden crash of coffee. Fits beautifully into a wellness routine, yoga practice or simply a mindful morning cup.
Preparation
Place 3.4 grams (about 1 heaped teaspoon, or one bamboo chashaku scoop) of matcha into a wide-mouthed bowl. Pour over 200 ml of hot but not boiling water (around 75–80 °C). Whisk vigorously in an M or W shape with a bamboo whisk (chasen) or small electric frother until a silky green foam forms on top. Drink immediately — matcha does not keep in the cup, as it is a powder.
Ingredients
100% organic stone-ground ceremonial-grade matcha green tea powder from Japan.
Who Is It For
For those who want cleaner, slower energy in the morning instead of coffee. A mindful choice for meditation, yoga, creative and focus-heavy work. An ideal premium gift for matcha lovers, wellness enthusiasts, or anyone wanting to try this special tea.
Storage
Matcha powder is especially sensitive to light, air and humidity. The tin protects it perfectly — keep tightly sealed in a cool, dry place, or even in the fridge (letting it warm to room temperature before opening to avoid condensation). After opening, consume within 4–6 weeks for the most vibrant flavour and colour.
