Makes my mornings even happier!

So very happy I came across this high-quality Matcha. It is exactly how they advertise it to be. It always starts my day off in the right way with its yummy delicious taste and while knowing that it is also good for my health. I have been drinking Matcha regularly for many years now and will continue with this brand and the automatic service which is super convenient. Highly recommend.

So good!!!

This is the best Matcha I’ve ever had and I’ve had many different brands of Matcha. It is a vibrant green and I make it either plain or with a little bit of macadamia milk and honey or I make the bone broth Matcha latte, which is absolutely delicious and nourishing!!

Matcha Is really helping me! And I LOVE THIS ONE!

Post cancer, and on estrogen blockers - I've been struggling with severe joint pain & body aches.

Matcha tea a few times a day is giving me great relief from these side effects.

I love the earthy & delicious taste of this .

So much so, I'm serving it to my family and now have a monthly subscription!

Great product, and consistent flavors!

Gina P.

Tenchi Ceremonial Organic Matcha

More about this matcha

Read

Organic matcha from Japan's first harvest

Tenchi is our organic matcha from Japan, picked in the first harvest of spring in Kagoshima, at the southern tip of Kyushu. Its name is the Japanese word for heaven and earth. The bushes are shaded before picking, and the leaves are steamed, dried and stone-ground.

Why organic matcha is hard to make sweet

Much of matcha's sweetness and savory depth comes from amino acids in the leaf. Organic rules limit the fertilizers growers can use, so many organic matchas taste lighter and brighter. Tenchi is our answer to that. It is blended from Okumidori, Samidori and Saemidori for a round, creamy cup with real umami, natural sweetness, a nutty depth and almost no bitterness.

Choosing among our Japanese organic matchas

Three of our organic matchas come from Kagoshima, and they taste quite different. Organic Superior is floral and light, an easy everyday cup. Japanese Ceremonial Organic is bolder and more savory. Tenchi is smoother and fuller than the other two. Whisk 1 to 2 g into 2 to 3 ounces of water at 175°F for usucha, the thin everyday style, or 3 to 4 g into 1 to 2 ounces for koicha, the thick style, where its body shows best.
