the gesture
An hour of hard labor for thirty grams.
Grinding is the slowest step in the entire process. Two granite millstones turn slowly to avoid heating the leaf.

milk
Also good in a latte
A grade that's too fine gets lost in milk. Its sweetness is diluted, its length fades, and all that's left is a color.
Hiraki holds its own. Its vegetal notes cut through the fat and remain identifiable until the last sip. It's the grade you choose when matcha needs to remain recognizable in something other than itself.

Why matcha
The whole leaf. Nothing is wasted.
With matcha, you consume the entire leaf—not just an infusion. L-Theanine calms. Caffeine stimulates. Together: a gentle, stable energy, without jitters.
Focus & Concentration
4 to 6 hours of sustained energy
Antioxidants
137× more than brewed green tea
Inner peace
Natural L-Theanine
Crash-free energy
Zero nervousness, zero falls
They tasted it.
What they say about it.
Third order. The taste is consistent, and delivery is fast. What I especially appreciate is that it doesn't make me nervous. I can take it in the afternoon.
I prepare it every morning instead of coffee. Stable energy all morning, no slump at 11 am.
I was looking for something serious without paying the price of an exceptional ceremony. Hiraki ticks all the boxes. Uji origin, ceremonial grade, accessible price.

Frequently Asked Questions.
Everything you need to know about our matchas.
Seika is our exceptional ceremonial grade: stone-ground Ichibancha, with zero bitterness. Hiraki is the classic ceremonial, balanced and vegetal. Saku is the superior culinary, with a bold flavor that holds up to cooking.
The origin does not change. The use and grade do.
Bitterness comes from inferior quality, water that is too hot, or excessive dosage. Our tea plants are shaded for several weeks before harvest. This technique concentrates L-theanine and reduces the tannins responsible for bitterness.
Our three matchas come from Uji, in the Kyoto region, the historical birthplace of matcha for over 800 years. Family farm, shading, hand-picking, stone-grinding. Only one harvest per year.
1g contains approximately 25 to 35mg of caffeine, the equivalent of a light espresso. 2g contains about 50 to 70mg, which is a standard coffee. L-theanine slows down caffeine absorption: stable energy for 4 to 6 hours, without peaks or crashes.
Sift 1g into a bowl. Add 70ml of water at a maximum of 75°C. Whisk in a W shape for 15 to 20 seconds.
For a latte: whisk 1g with a little hot water, then top up with 150ml of hot or cold milk.
No. An electric frother works very well for daily use. The main thing is to dissolve the powder thoroughly to avoid lumps.
