SELECTION 001

Where it beginsOur producer in Shizuoka has over a century of heritage and seven generations of tea making, bringing together tradition and modern tea-making technology. Their gardens follow Chagusaba, Shizuoka's tea-grass farming system: grasses are cut and laid between the tea rows as natural mulch, feeding the soil and the creatures that live in it. In 2013 the FAO recognised Chagusaba as a Globally Important Agricultural Heritage System. The producer has earned four consecutive top prizes at a fine tea competition.


Selection 001 is a first-harvest, bead-milled matcha made from a single cultivar, Okumidori. Expect a clean, refined taste, gentle umami, a smooth texture and a lingering finish. It's a matcha to prepare slowly, share with people you like, and, honestly, finish a little sooner than you planned.

FAQWhat does "reservation" mean?
You pay now (or at pick-up) and your pouch is set aside from the current batch; see the target dates above. Once a batch sells out, new reservations go into the next production batch: allow 30–60 days for production, then shipping.
How do I prepare it?
About 2 g (two bamboo scoops, or half a teaspoon).
Is it "ceremonial"?
We're not saying it isn't. "Ceremonial" just isn't an official grade in Japan, so we'd rather tell you what it actually is: Okumidori cultivar, first harvest, bead-milled, from Shizuoka, made for usucha and koicha.
I run a café or shop. Can I order more?
Yes. Email [email protected] or use the message form below and we'll talk it through.
