The flavor of matcha green tea ranges from mildly sweet to fresh and aromatic to full-bodied and creamy.

All three matcha green teas are, of course, grown entirely without pesticides or chemical fertilizers. We’ve also had this verified by an independent third party—you can view the pesticide report in the photo gallery on each tea’s product page. So you can be sure that our tea is 100% free of harmful substances.

The matcha can also be drunk by beginners without hesitation due to its easy solubility. Normally, a Chasen (茶筅), a matcha whisk made of bamboo, is used. The whisk is used to mix the powder with the water and whisk the matcha until frothy. Alternatively, you can also use a small whisk or milk frother.
