Ceremonial Matcha, by The Tea House, is a premium green tea direct from Kagoshima in Japan.

Tea cultivars Saemidori, Okumidori and Asanoka are shade-grown to promote exceptionally high concentrations of chlorophyll, amino acids and caffeine.  Matcha is rich in antioxidants.

Only first growth leaves, ichibancha, are selected, steamed, dried and meticulously stone-milled to a fine powder.  Matcha Kagoshima is verdant green in colour with intense umami notes and a smooth finish with a classic hint of prized bitterness.

The perfect morning beverage, with slow releasing caffeine to keep you going.  This is matcha at its peak.  A little goes a long way, so head to our brew guide for all you need to know.

Region & Growing Info

Japan

Japan is famous for its high-quality green teas like Sencha, Gyokuro, and Matcha. Grown primarily in Shizuoka, Kagoshima, and Uji, these teas are known for their fresh, vegetal, and umami-rich flavours. Gyokuro is shade grown, offering a deep, sweet profile, while Sencha’s tend to have a bright, grassy taste. Matcha, a powdered green tea, is used in traditional ceremonies and has an intense, creamy flavour.

Japan's unique steaming process preserves the verdant, green colour of its teas. In addition to traditional green teas, Japan also produces Genmaicha (green tea with roasted rice). Genmaicha has a nutty, toasty flavour and is often consumed daily.
