The Journey to
Single Origin Matcha
We believe there’s a better way to grow the matcha that powers us through the day. That’s why we're bringing you our first single-estate matcha. You have the right to know where your matcha comes from. Matcha is typically a blend of tea leaves from various farms, making it impossible to know where the matcha is from, or what’s really in it.
We’ve been on a mission to source single-estate matcha, and we’re delivering it with our Single Origin line. Every particle in each tin of our Single Origin line is 100% pure matcha, grown pesticide free (and uses 100% organic fertilizer that is locally produced from dehydrated organic food scraps) and sourced from a single matcha farm in Shizuoka Prefecture, Japan. In other words, it’s the real deal. And, it just so happens to be some of the best organic matcha we've tasted. Sip soundly.
Introducing
Exceptionally Sustainable Matcha
Kiwami
Kiwami (meaning “ultimate” or “extreme”) is our most premium matcha. It comes from single-cultivar tea leaves, ground from hand-picked tea leaves of the renowned Okumidori cultivar. The Okumidori cultivated tea variety is very ideal for making into matcha. Our Kiwami matcha has a balanced umami flavor, with tasting notes of floral, honey, and cream. It is the best matcha we’ve ever tasted. Super ceremonial grade.
Flavor notes: Floral | Cream | Honey
Ideal for sipping straight.
Hikari
Our Hikari (the Japanese translation for “light” or “glow’ from the sun) grade is premium matcha with the smoothest taste. A blend of cultivars from the first harvest, Hikari is so delicious you can sip it straight with water but it can be used to make any matcha recipe. Ceremonial grade.
Flavor notes: Walnut | Lemon | Butter
Ideal for sipping straight.
Our founder Hannah Habes spent several days in the fertile hills of Japan ensuring that this farm was as incredible as it seemed. Our Single Origin line is ground from hand-picked tea leaves grown on one farm in Shizuoka Prefecture, Japan — the prefecture known for producing arguably the best tasting tea in the world. Kiwami and Hikari are comprised of only first-harvest leaves—the best of the best.
We believe you should know where your matcha’s been and the journey it took to get to you, from farm to whisk.
For the Greater Good
Harnessing Clean Energy
Our Single Origin line isn’t just single estate, it’s also helping to create clean energy by using solar panels to both shade the leaves and to power the farm. The farm is able to subsidize their income while providing the local utility with energy — an essential initiative as Japan moves away from nuclear energy.
