This is your daily drinker and beginners' choice for its consistency, price point and approachable flavour.
Why Matcha
Subtle sweet, earthy vegetable tones, no wonder it has become so popular in recent times. Enjoyed as a traditional Matcha tea, in a smoothie, in a latte or used in desserts and cakes, let Matcha charm your taste buds. We should mention the various health benefits that come with the taste, packed with antioxidants, vitamins and minerals, your immune system will thank you. Enjoy boosted energy levels and a sense of calm and focus.
Colour and Texture
Vibrant colour equals vibrant taste which is our philosophy in choosing and preparing this matcha for Australia. We ensure our producer uses only the youngest leaves coupled with longer periods of shading, to deliver sweetness over astringency. Haiku Matcha is produced using the jet milling process for finer powder for finer cups of tea.
Freshness
Our Matcha, alongside with our Hojicha and Genmaicha Powders are air freighted in from Japan at peak freshness. We rely directly on tea farmers, rather than trading companies, paying our producers the right price for the right quality.
Sustainability
Committed to ethical and sustainable practices, our matcha is grown responsibly, free of radiation, heavy metals, pesticides and bacteria.
