Matcha

Matcha is a Japanese green tea powder made from finely powdered dried tea leaves. It has a slightly bitter, vegetal taste and a vibrant green colour that results from the leaves’ high chlorophyll levels. It’s been at the heart of traditional Japanese tea ceremonies for centuries.

The Uji region, situated west of Osaka, stands as one of Japan's premier and longest-established areas for Matcha Tea cultivation. Renowned for its pristine water and fertile soil free from pesticides, Uji enjoys an ideal climate nurtured by the mist from the nearby Uji and Kizu rivers. This mist keeps the tea plants adequately hydrated and minimises the threat of frost damage.
