The matcha you need. Straight from Kyoto's tea fields to Sydney's shores.
We care about what's good for our health and our environment. That's why we've handpicked our ceremonial-grade matcha with a focus on only the most premium tea leaves, delivered to you in environmentally friendly packaging.
We also transform these into delightful drinks for all to enjoy at markets across Sydney.
Our matcha is sourced from Kyoto, Japan, where matcha has been produced for centuries using traditional methods and strict quality standards. Our matcha is ceremonial grade — suitable for drinking on its own with water or milk, not just for baking or blending.
Yes. Our matcha is 100% vegan, gluten-free, dairy-free pure green tea powder — no sugar, no fillers, no flavouring, and no additives.
Matcha is naturally rich in antioxidants, particularly catechins, and contains L-theanine, which promotes calm focus. It also provides gentle, sustained energy due to its natural caffeine content. Matcha contains caffeine, but typically less than coffee. Because of the L-theanine, many people experience a smoother, longer-lasting energy without jitters or crashes.
Orders are usually dispatched within 1–2 business days. Delivery times vary by location but typically range from 2–5 business days within Australia.

Sift 1–2 grams of matcha into a bowl or cup, add a small amount of hot (not boiling) water, whisk until smooth, then pair it with your milk of choice as a latte, or coconut water as a refreshing drink. You can also enjoy it as an usucha (thin tea) by adding a bit more water.

Store matcha in an airtight container, away from light, heat, and moisture. A cool cupboard works well once opened. Matcha doesn’t “go off” quickly, but it’s best enjoyed fresh, so it’s important to store it properly and consume it within 4–8 weeks for optimal flavour and colour.
If there’s an issue with your order or product quality, please contact us and we’ll make it right. Due to the nature of food products, change-of-mind returns may be limited.
