From Farm to Matcha, with Care

Safe, Reliable Matcha You Can Trust

1: Shade Growing

Tea plants are shaded before harvest to enhance umami and vibrant green color.

2: Harvesting

Young tea leaves are carefully harvested at peak freshness.

3:Steaming

Leaves are steamed immediately after harvest to stop oxidation and preserve color and aroma.

4: Drying & Sorting (Tencha Production)

Leaves are dried without rolling, and stems and veins are removed to produce tencha.

5: Stone Grinding

Tencha is slowly ground into a fine powder using traditional stone mills.

6: Sifting & Finishing

The powder is sifted to ensure a smooth texture and consistent particle size.
