Matcha Tea
Okinami Organic

The fields of our farming collective are located in Shibushi, nestled between the mountains of the southern island of Kyushu and the Pacific Ocean in southern Kagoshima. The tea farm specializes in making organic farming particularly efficient and environmentally friendly, with specially developed machinery for gentle and 100% natural pest removal. For their matcha, the farm uses Kuradashi tencha, in which the harvested tencha leaves are allowed to mature for several months, resulting in a deep, particularly mild and mellow flavor in the matcha.

Single Origin

This matcha comes 100% from the above tea field and tea farmer and is packed airtight for us directly on site. Direct purchase from the manufacturer

Recommended Matcha Bowl

We highly recommend using an authentic Japanese matcha bowl for the preparation of this tea in order to allow for the matcha to develop its full flavour.

Recommended Accessories

To achieve the optimal texture and flavour of matcha, as well as to maximally preserve its bioactive compounds, we recommend using a matcha sifter (furui) and whisk (chasen). To accurately measure and serve matcha powder, we further recommend using a traditional bamboo spoon known as a chashaku.

Storage and Packaging

Matcha should always be stored in the refrigerator and should not be left at room temperature for longer than a few minutes. Because matcha is finely ground, it is particularly susceptible to absorbing moisture and odours, as well as being sensitive to light and oxidation. For this reason, ensure that it is stored in an airtight, refrigerated container. Packed in a particularly high-quality, airtight aroma protection bag with zipper and stand-up bottom. A 9-layer coating provides maximum protection against the effects of harmful substances. To keep your matcha fresh for as long as possible, store in a breathable and antibacterial matcha caddy made of cherry bark.
