Matcha is a powdered tencha* historically used in the Japanese tea ceremony. Our Organic Ceremonial Matcha is made from the most tender, young organic tea leaves that have been shade grown. Compared with Organic Culinary Matcha, it possesses a smoother and more savory flavor and a sweeter aroma. Organic Ceremonial Matcha is suitable for serving in Japanese tea ceremony, welcoming esteemed guests, or indulging in the finest of green teas during times of relaxation.
*Tencha is a minimally-processed, fluffy leaf tea produced specifically to make fresh matcha.

I love Sugimoto so very much. I was hesitant to order 100 grams of matcha because with most matcha distributors, especially in quantity, the quality can suffer, but this 100 g bag of matcha is outstanding. I drink a lot of matcha so the little tins you can get, run out so quickly. This is my go to matcha, it’s great quality, it arrives in two to three days (to Colorado) and it’s quality is always great. It arrives with a sincere hand written note every time and I feel very glad to be supporting a family ran Japanese tea producer, especially one with such integrity and sincerity. I am a Sugimoto customer for life now and you should be too. Also, in over 15 years of drinking matcha I’ve never had any so good as Sugimoto’s “Reserve Mizuki Matcha”. It is also definitely worth a try..

Best Ceremonial Grade Matcha I have Found
Sugimotos Ceremonial Grade Matcha is the best I have found and I have done a good deal of research. The care and personal attention included in each package are also something I look forward to (i.e. personalized note included). I drink it every morning and prepare with the traditional method. The color is a vibrant bright green, which sometimes other matchas in this grade don not achieve. I put mine in an air-tight glass jar because I enjoy the color. In terms of powder fineness and taste, I prefer it to a professional matcha cafe and other brands I have tried. I also think the price point for the amount is good. Highly recommend! If you are serious about your matcha, this one is for you. Cheers!
