Origin

From the south of Japan, where spring arrives first.

Kagoshima sits at the southern tip of Kyushu. Its warm climate lets the tea plants flush earlier than anywhere else in Japan. Our matcha comes exclusively from that first harvest – the most tender leaves of the year.

Taste

Ceremonial grade, the way it should be.

Naturally sweet up front, then a deep umami note and an exceptionally smooth finish. No bitterness, no hay.

Creamy and round – the way ceremonial grade should taste.

Straight with water as usucha. And because it's so smooth, a great latte too.

How to brew

Three steps. Ninety seconds.

  1. 01

    2–4 g

    Sift

    Sift 2–4 g of matcha into the bowl through a fine sieve, depending on how strong you like it. No lumps, finer foam.

  2. 02

    1 : 13 · 63–70 °C

    Water

    Ratio 1 : 13 – 13 ml of water per gram of matcha, so about 26 ml for 2 g. Temperature 63–70 °C: cooler tastes sweeter, warmer more robust. Adjust the water to taste.

  3. 03

    ≈ 20 s

    Whisk

    Whisk with a chasen in quick W-strokes until a fine, even foam forms.

For a latte: cold, pour the whisked matcha over cold milk and ice. Warm, put the matcha in the cup first, then add the warm milk.

Questions

Everything you want to know before ordering.

About 15 at 2 g per bowl, about 8 at a strong 4 g. Most people use 3 g for a latte.
Unopened: cool, dry and dark, best before the date on the bottom. Once opened, reseal, keep it in the fridge and use it within a month – that keeps it vivid green and fresh.
Matcha contains caffeine, roughly comparable to an espresso per bowl. Because of the L-theanine in tea, many find the effect calmer and longer-lasting.
We ship Monday to Friday from Vienna with Austrian Post. Delivery usually takes 1–3 business days. Pickup orders are typically ready the same day.
Yes. Choose 1010 (Fleischmarkt 20) or 1070 (Stiftgasse 19) in the cart. You'll get an email as soon as the pouch is ready. Just mention your order name.
Ceremonial grade is milled from the youngest leaves of the first harvest and is sweet and smooth enough to drink straight with water. Culinary grade is stronger and more bitter, meant for baking or smoothies. Ours is ceremonial grade – which is why it's so smooth in a latte too.
