Taste the whole journey of matcha!

50g of our pristine tencha is paired with 40g of our signature, hand-harvested Kokoro matcha green tea and discounted as a bundled set. Try tencha as a loose leaf tea, and then whisk up our hand-harvested Kokoro Mizuba Matcha to see the relationship of flavor from raw to finished state.

Tencha:
Aroma: the pure essence of Japan.
Flavor profile: sweet umami, buttered toast, lightly toasted grain, adzuki bean.

Matcha:
Aroma: milk chocolate
Flavor profile: whisk up Kokoro's froth and you'll taste ample, smooth umami. From start-to-finish of your sip, you'll experience layers of complex flavor, including a silky, balanced sweetness reminiscent of red wine. As one tea blogger puts it, "I don’t even have words in English or Japanese to describe it."

How to brew: 

  • Warm your chawan tea bowl with hot water.
  • Place 1.5-2g (1 tsp) of  matcha into your chawan.
  • Add 1 ounce of 160ºF-175ºF water to the tea and make koicha (a thick paste).
  • Add about another 1.5-2 ounces of water.
  • Whisk with your chasen until the tea is fully aerated to make usucha.
  • Enjoy!

Fresh harvest tencha tea leaves from Uji, Japan - Mizuba Tea Co.

Matcha begins as tencha -- the term used to designate properly shade-grown tea leaves destined to become matcha.

Matcha is not actually matcha in the field! Matcha translates to "rubbed tea" and is only called so after the tencha tea leaves are milled into the fine tea powder you love.

Enjoy tencha and matcha side by side to savor the shared connection between the leaf in the raw and finished state. Read about it here!

Stone Milled

All Mizuba matcha is stone milled in Japan. This time-intensive process leads to a depth of flavor not found in conventional teas.
