Matcha is Vintage

Like wine, each harvest carries its own character.

Weather shapes sweetness.
Soil adds depth.
Shading alters smoothness.
Harvest timing defines aroma.

When a harvest ends, that taste does not return.

We release only what we receive.

From Uji to Your Cup

Shade-grown for weeks before harvest. Handpicked at peak vitality. Stone-milled in small batches. Stored under chill in Sydney. Released in seasonal allocation.

1. Shade Grown

Leaves are covered for three to four weeks before harvest. Shading increases chlorophyll production, l-theanine, and caffeine.

2. Picked By Hand

Handpicking ensures only the youngest, bursting with vitality, nutrient-dense leaves are harvested.

3. Quickly Steamed

Once harvested, the young leaves get steamed ASAP to prevent oxidation.

4. Multiple Drying

After steaming, the leaves are dried multiple times. This makes grinding into a fine powder and removing stems and veins easier.

5. Veins Removed

The stems and veins can make the matcha more bitter. These are removed for ceremonial grade matcha. After this process, the leaves are now called tencha.

6. Stored Fresh

Tencha leaves are stored in large boxes in a chiller for lasting freshness. Only enough portions are taken out for replenishment.

7. Tea Master Blends

The tea master selects the tencha leaves, ensuring that our matcha’s unique taste and harmonious traits are maintained consistently.

8. Traditional Stone Grinding

Only small batches are selected to be grounded to matcha. Stone mill grinding produces only 30g of matcha in 1 hour. Faster grinding generates heat that could compromise the quality, flavor, and color of the matcha
