Behind the matcha

Why Ceremonial Grade Matcha?

Grown and crafted on our farm, Isshiki’s ceremonial grade matcha stands above lower grades in color, taste, and quality. Unlike dull, bitter culinary matcha, ours is vibrant, smooth, and naturally energizing, made from the youngest spring leaves.

Where Does Isshiki Matcha Come From?

  • Isshiki matcha is crafted by artisan Masa-san, whose family has perfected the art over generations. Each leaf is hand-picked to prevent oxidation and preserve its rich, vibrant flavor.

  • Every sip reflects our deep respect for the art of matcha. Masa-san's form is a reminder that true quality comes from time, care, and generations of passion.

  • We honor tradition by crafting every batch with care, from growing to grinding. Our hands-on process ensures a matcha that's pure, flavorful, and rooted in centuries of expertise.
