Our matcha isn't just tea; it's a journey into the heart of Japan's rich tea culture. Handpicked from the southernmost islands of Japan, our matcha is cultivated using time-honoured techniques passed down through generations. In the month leading up to harvest, the tea fields are carefully shaded to reduce sunlight by 90%. This process encourages the plants to produce higher levels of chlorophyll and amino acids, resulting in vibrant green leaves that are rich in nutrients.
