100% matcha (green tea) from Japan

Origin: Kirishima Mountains Kagoshima, Japan

The Kagoshima region in Japan is renowned for producing high-quality matcha, valued for its smooth, balanced flavor and vibrant green color. Its fertile volcanic soil and ideal climate create a matcha with natural sweetness, rich umami, and exceptional depth.

Matchatori comes in kraft paper bags rather than tins, which reduces environmental impact and logistics costs, ultimately benefiting the planet and offering you a more affordable price.

OUR PROMISE

Vibrant green matcha

Our matcha stands out for its vibrant green color, a sign of true freshness and careful cultivation. The deep hue comes from high chlorophyll levels that develop when the leaves are shaded before harvest.

Matcha that looks pale or brown often lacks this freshness and is made from older or lower-quality leaves. The color is one of the clearest signs of genuine quality — and ours shines bright.

How to use Matchatori

Step 1

Add 1/2 teaspoon (approximately 2g) of matcha into a bowl. While sifting is usually suggested to achieve a smooth and clump-free consistency, Matchatori’s incredibly fine powder is crafted to be whisked easily without the need for sifting, saving you time while still delivering a perfect result.

Step 2

Pair tThe preferred matcha whisking technique is the "M" or "W" motion, where you whisk briskly in a zigzag pattern using light wrist movements to create a smooth, frothy layer with no clumps or large bubbles.ext with an image to focus on your chosen product, collection, or blog post.

Step 3

If you prefer a lighter consistency, add more water, or for a creamier texture, use your favorite milk—whether dairy or plant-based. Stir thoroughly to ensure a smooth blend, then take a moment to savor and enjoy your matcha!

High Elevation & Misty Mountains

Tea fields at higher elevations, like those in the Kirishima Mountains of Kagoshima, enjoy cool air, gentle mists, and frequent rainfall that create ideal conditions for growing premium matcha. The slower leaf growth in this environment increases chlorophyll and amino acid levels, giving the matcha its deep green color, rich umami, and smooth, naturally balanced taste with less bitterness.

THE ORIGIN OF MATCHATORI

Kagoshima, Japan

The Kirishima Mountains in Kagoshima Prefecture on the southern tip of Kyushu are known for their pure environment and volcanic soil, making them an ideal place for growing high-quality matcha. The high elevation and cool mountain air together with the soft mist slow the growth of the tea leaves and bring out a natural sweetness and depth of flavor.

Matcha from Kirishima is known for its bright green color, rich umami and smooth slightly nutty taste. The fertile mineral-rich soil and the farmers’ focus on organic cultivation give it a clean and well-balanced flavor with a fresh green character. While rooted in long tradition, Kirishima’s tea producers continue to innovate and create matcha that is both genuine and exceptionally high in quality.

OUR STORY

The Journey to Matchatori

Matchatori was born from a journey—both literal and personal. It all started when Anton, feeling lost in life, booked a spontaneous solo trip to Japan. He didn’t know what he was looking for, but once there, matcha found him. From the quiet corners of traditional tea houses to the vibrant streets of Tokyo, he discovered something more than just a drink—he found a way of life.

Frequently asked questions

Matcha is a finely ground powder made from shade grown green tea leaves.

Unlike regular tea, where the leaves are steeped and then removed, matcha is whisked directly into water so you drink the entire leaf and all of its natural nutrients and antioxidants.

Good matcha has a bright, vivid green color and a smooth, silky texture. The taste should be rich and naturally sweet with a gentle umami and very little bitterness.

Most importantly, true matcha always comes from Japan. Every Matchatori blend meets these standards, made with care and attention to quality from start to finish.

Both come from the same plant but are grown and enjoyed in different ways. Matcha is shade grown, which increases its chlorophyll and amino acids and gives it a deeper flavor and more nutrients.

It is also consumed as a powder, meaning you drink the entire leaf. Regular green tea is steeped in water, so you only get part of the leaf’s natural benefits.

We focus entirely on high quality matcha and offer a range of ceremonial grade options to suit different preferences. Most of our matchas come from the first harvest, which ensures exceptional color, aroma and taste.

We also offer a few premium latte grade matchas made from either first and second or pure second harvests, perfect for everyday lattes.

Our matcha comes directly from family owned farms across Japan in Kagoshima, Yame, Fuji Shizuoka and Asahina Shizuoka.

Each region has its own unique character and flavor, and our family of tea growers continues to grow as we discover new partners and harvests.

Ceremonial grade is the highest quality, bright in color and smooth in taste, made for traditional preparation with just water.

Premium or latte grade is slightly less delicate but still smooth and flavorful, perfect for lattes and everyday drinking.

Culinary grade is more robust and slightly bitter, ideal for recipes, desserts or smoothies.

A bamboo whisk helps you create the smooth and frothy texture that makes matcha so special. While a milk frother or blender also works well, a chasen gives a finer, more even foam and a more authentic experience. The most important thing is to enjoy the ritual in a way that feels right for you.
