There is a general shortage of matcha in Japan currently, so unfortunately our stock will be limited until the new season. In the meantime we will do our best to secure as much matcha as we can.

Add Funmatsucha to culinary grade Matcha!

  • Alex Sanson

We gained some wonderful insights on how to boost culinary grade Matcha with Funmatsucha at Master Kitagawa's tea shop in Oita last week. Here he shows his method for sifting his Asatsuyu leaves in order to separate out loose leaves, tea bag leaves, and culinary quality (perfect for Matcha-flavored ICE CREAM!!!!!!)... The ice cream tasted AMAZING, with the Funmatsucha mixed into the Matcha to elevate the flavor and keep the lingering notes singing away on the palette long after we put down our spoons!
