Premium matcha powder crafted by top-ranking tea master Hiroshi Kobayashi. Uji is the number one matcha region in Japan.

This Uji matcha features a silky texture, calming effect, delicate aroma, and deep umami flavor: perfect for enjoying on its own or as a smooth matcha latte.

Why is Uji the most highly regarded matcha region?

Uji’s reputation as Japan’s finest matcha producer stems from a combination of key factors.

  • tea cultivation in the region dates back to the 12th century, giving growers centuries to refine their craft.
  • Uji’s misty mornings, cool nights, and mineral-rich soil create ideal conditions for tea plants.
  • the shading method for tea plants—developed in Uji—increases the chlorophyll and amino acid content of the leaves.
  • Uji tea masters have perfected every step of matcha production, from hand-picking the leaves to the precise art of grinding and blending the powder.

The result is Uji’s global recognition as the spiritual home of Japanese matcha.

FAQ – Matcha Powder

What is matcha powder?

Matcha is a finely ground green tea powder made from specially grown and processed tea leaves from Japan. Unlike regular green tea, you consume the entire leaf, which means more nutrients and antioxidants.

Does matcha contain caffeine?

Yes, matcha contains natural caffeine. However, it also contains L-theanine, an amino acid that promotes calm focus and helps avoid the energy crash commonly associated with coffee.

How should I store matcha powder?

To preserve freshness, flavour and colour:

  • Store in an airtight container.
  • Keep in a cool, dry place, away from sunlight and moisture.
  • Refrigeration is optional but recommended once opened.

What can I use matcha powder for?

Matcha is incredibly versatile:

  • Matcha lattes (hot or iced)
  • Smoothies and energy bowls
  • Baking (cakes, cookies, pancakes)
  • Homemade ice cream and desserts
