Perfect for traditional preparation.

Ichibancha means “first tea”, referring to the first harvest of tea leaves in the spring.

A ceremonial grade matcha crafted from the finest spring tea harvests, showcasing the purest expression of terroir. Delicately floral on the nose, with beautifully balanced sweet and savoury notes, and a bright ‘cut grass’ finish.

To appreciate the best of this sweet and delicate matcha we recommend making it in a traditional, ceremonial style or drunk cold with water – still or sparkling!

Top Tip: Avoid make matcha with boiling water! Water over 70°C will extract the bitter tannins in your tea rather than the delicious, sweet notes.

Henry ★★★★★

The vibrant green color and fine texture tell you this is quality the moment you open the tin. It whisked up smoothly with no clumps, and the taste is vegetal and sweet without any bitterness. Definitely worth the price for a daily bowl.

Scarlett G. ★★★★★

I’ve been using this for my morning tea ceremony and the vibrant green color tells me it’s truly first harvest. The powder mixes smoothly with just a bamboo whisk, no clumps at all.

Ellie M. ★★★★★

The fine texture of this powder dissolves instantly when whisked, creating a rich, smooth cup with a natural sweetness. I've been using it for my morning tea ceremony and the color is a brilliant, almost electric green.
