The traditional cultivation of tencha requires shading the tea garden for 3-4 weeks prior to harvest. This elevates chlorophyll and enhances L-theanine and other stimulating amino acids responsible for matcha's unique bounty of energy.

Tencha is made from tea strains specifically cultivated to be:

  • Low in tannin
  • High in caffeine
  • Rich in flavor & umami
  • Our top grade of organic matcha is made from the first springtime harvest of tencha, savored for its umami sweetness, creamy taste and enlivening energy. Prepare Teahouse Matcha in the traditional, ceremonial manner called Cha No Yu using a tea bowl and a bamboo tea whisk.

    Matcha is the ceremonial Japanese green tea made from lush, shade-grown tea leaves called tencha that are ground to a fine powder using stone mills. This supercharged tea has long been enjoyed for its uplifting natural energy. Zen monks use matcha for wakefulness, endurance and enhanced focus during a meditation. It is the essential energy drink with contemporary culinary distinction and ancient heritage.

    Matcha is prepared by whisking the powder in hot water to create a vivid green tea with a deliciously smooth, creamy flavor and frothy, espresso-like mouthfeel.

    Suggested Use

    Sift: Sift 1 tsp (2 g) matcha into a bowl.

    Water: Add 2.5 oz (70 ml) of hot water (about 160º F).

    Whisk: Whisk with a bamboo chasen 15-25 sec until rich and foamy.
