Uji Matcha Tea

$48.00

From a 16-generation, family-owned tea house in Uji, Japan, nestled between Kyoto and Lake Biwa, where misty river valleys and mineral-rich water craft exceptional matcha.

A fresh, velvety matcha with a savory umami depth, balanced by gentle sweetness and a smooth, lingering finish.

Shade-grown tencha leaves, stone-ground on site, harvested in a small-batch spring flush for peak vibrancy.

Harvest Year: Summer 2025

For lattes or smoothies, whisk 2–3 g of matcha into a small splash of warm water until smooth, then blend into milk or your favorite cold drink.

Because matcha uses the entire tea leaf, it delivers a vibrant, full-bodied flavor and blends seamlessly into both hot and cold recipes, making it easy to create velvety lattes, refreshing smoothies, or simply whisk and enjoy as a warm, comforting cup of tea.

Origin Story

  • Japan

  • Nestled between Kyoto and Lake Biwa, Uji is one of Japan’s most revered tea regions, with a history of cultivation stretching over 800 years. Its misty river valleys, mineral-rich water, and ideal climate create the perfect conditions for growing tea of exceptional quality—vibrant in color, rich in umami, and smooth on the palate.

    Uji is celebrated for both ceremonial matcha and high-grade sencha, a region where centuries of tradition meet meticulous craftsmanship.

    Our matcha comes from a family-owned tea shop in the heart of Uji, where the art of tea making has been lovingly passed down through 16 generations.

    Walking through their fields, you can feel the care in every leaf, nurtured by the rich soil and perfected by the region’s unique climate. Every scoop of this matcha carries not just the flavor of Uji, but the story of its people and their centuries-old dedication to the craft.
