The Uji Matcha Tea Story

Nestled between Kyoto and Lake Biwa, Uji has cultivated exceptional tea for over 800 years. Its misty river valleys, mineral-rich water, and ideal climate create matcha of extraordinary quality — vibrant in color, rich in umami, smooth on the palate. Our matcha comes from a family-owned tea house where the art of tea making has been lovingly passed down through 16 generations. Every scoop carries not just the flavor of Uji, but the story of its people and their centuries-old dedication to the craft.
