The Secret of making matcha from regular green leaves is the delicate, complicated, slow production process. The taste of matcha is unique and its umami flavour can be compared to no other tea produced around the world. Its look is also very different, and although frequently confused with an instant powder, matcha is purely whole leaves ground down to make a super-fine powder.
Matcha is one of the highest quality teas produced in Japan. Matcha is carefully grown close to the river, where the soil is very fertile. Rich soil creates the characteristic mellow and deep taste.Our Matcha is grown in the shade for 20 to 30 days before harvest by the way of "Tana" which requires skilful technique and great care. Excellent noble aroma is created by the shaded from the sunlight of the "Tana" technique.
