Our promise
Vibrant green matcha
Top-quality matcha stands out with its brilliant, vibrant green color, a reflection of its freshness, rich chlorophyll content, and careful production process. In contrast, low quality matcha appears dull, pale, or even brownish, lacking the luster and vibrancy that signal high standards, often indicating staleness or the use of lower-grade leaves.
Bra
Riktigt smakfullt!
Njuter av varenda kopp!
After trying all three matchas, I keep coming back to this one. Each has its own unique charm, but there’s something about this blend that really speaks to me.
What stands out to me about this particular Traditional Ceremonial Grade Matcha is the nutty undertone – it adds such a warm, comforting layer to the overall flavor.
I started with the bundle, which was the perfect way to explore the range and discover what makes each one special in its own way. Recommend doing this ;)!
Thank you Matchatori, Sasha & Anton for bringing such beautiful matcha into our lives. Your passion truly shines through in every cup🍵💚
Really good quality matcha. I specially recommend the blue one. But all of them are special in their own way. If you’re new to matcha then you probobly would like the green one the best. It’s kinda mild and not so ”grassy”.
How to use Matchatori
Preparing matcha is a simple ritual filled with beauty and intention. We recommend using a bamboo whisk for the best experience, but an electric whisk is a good alternative if you don’t have one.

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
The 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.

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!

Handpicked tea leaves
The tea leaves for our Traditional Ceremonial Grade Matcha (No 2) are handpicked to ensure only the youngest and most tender leaves are selected, as they provide the best flavor, texture, and nutrients. This meticulous process avoids lower-quality or damaged leaves, preserving the matcha's vibrant color, smooth texture, and rich umami taste.
Energize, Focus, and Thrive
Whether you're looking for better energy, focus, health benefits, or a mindful daily ritual, matcha offers more than just a caffeine fix—it’s a wellness powerhouse!
Caffeine + L-theanine = 💚
Matcha’s unique combination of L-theanine and caffeine supports a state of calm focus, making it an ideal choice for mindful moments.
A Natural Antioxidant Powerhouse 🍵
Matcha is a natural source of antioxidants, which help protect your body from free radicals and oxidative stress, contributing to overall vitality.
Rich in chlorophyll 🍃
Matcha is rich in chlorophyll, the green pigment in plants, which has been traditionally associated with cleansing properties and vitality.

Japan + matcha = 🖤
Japan's mastery of matcha is rooted in a harmonious blend of ancient agricultural wisdom, microclimatic perfection, generational craftsmanship, and an unrivaled national commitment to transforming green tea from a mere drink into a sophisticated, nuanced cultural expression.
More Than Just Tea—Matcha Gives You the Full Power of the Leaf
Unlike regular green tea or coffee, which are brewed and then discarded, matcha is made from finely ground whole tea leaves. This means you consume 100% of the leaf's nutrients, including powerful antioxidants, essential vitamins, minerals, and dietary fiber—giving you a more concentrated and beneficial dose of goodness in every sip.

Where we source our matcha
Yame Fukuoka
Yame (八女市) is a city in Fukuoka Prefecture, located on Japan's Kyushu island. It’s a region famous for producing some of Japan's highest-quality matcha and gyokuro (a type of shaded green tea).
The city, especially the mountainous areas like Hoshino Village, has ideal conditions for tea cultivation: mineral-rich soil, morning mists, and an abundance of natural springs, which together help create rich, umami flavors in the tea leaves.
Yame matcha, in particular, is celebrated for its deep, complex flavor and smooth, creamy finish, making it highly prized both within Japan and internationally. Tea from Yame is often used in traditional tea ceremonies, and the region also has a strong culture of tea craftsmanship, with tea farmers often following centuries-old practices to cultivate and process the leaves.

"It's the perfect balance of umami, sweetness, and earthy vegetal flavors, with a wonderfully smooth and creamy mouthfeel."
- Anton, founder Matchatori

Morning mists for better matcha
Morning mists and river fogs naturally shade the tea plantations. They are very frequent in Yame, where our Traditional Ceremonial Grade Matcha is grown.
This creates a gentle, diffused light environment that enhances matcha's flavor, boosts nutrient content, and develops the tea's signature rich, umami profile.

Plenty of rain
The Yame region gets plenty of rain—between 1,600 and 2,400 millimeters each year—which provides just the right amount of water for healthy green tea plants to thrive.

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.
Back home, Sasha, his girlfriend, already had a deep love for matcha. She had long embraced its energy, clarity, and health benefits. Together, their passion grew into a shared mission: to bring authentic, high-quality matcha to people who, like them, value wellness, balance, and living closer to nature.
With Anton’s background as co-founder of a leading natural beverage brand in Sweden, and Sasha’s lifelong dedication to holistic health, they set out to create Matchatori—a brand that doesn’t just sell matcha but honors its origins, purity, and purpose.
At Matchatori, we believe matcha is more than a trend. It’s a ritual, a connection to nature, and a way to fuel both body and mind. Whether you're looking for calm focus, natural energy, or a mindful moment, we’re here to share the best matcha Japan has to offer.
But Matchatori is more than just a brand—it’s a reflection of our journey and our belief in living with intention. We carefully source our matcha from the finest tea farms in Japan, ensuring it’s not only of the highest quality but also produced with integrity and respect for tradition. Every sip is an invitation to slow down, reconnect, and embrace a more balanced way of life.
We created Matchatori for those who want to experience matcha the way it was meant to be—pure, vibrant, and full of life. It’s for those who appreciate the small rituals that bring clarity and presence. It’s for those who seek more from what they consume, valuing quality over shortcuts and authenticity over compromise.
Welcome to Matchatori—matcha with purpose, made for those who seek more.
With love and matcha,
Anton & Sasha 💚

Frequently asked questions
Matcha basics
What is matcha?
Matcha is a finely ground powder made from specially grown and processed green tea leaves. Unlike regular tea, where leaves are steeped and removed, matcha powder is whisked directly into water, allowing you to consume the entire leaf and its nutrients.
What’s the difference between matcha and green tea?
Matcha is made from green tea leaves.
Matcha is shade-grown, resulting in higher chlorophyll and amino acid content, and it’s consumed as a powder, offering more nutrients. Regular green tea is typically steeped, so you don’t ingest the whole leaf.
What is the origin of your matcha?
Our matcha is sources from family owned farms on the island of Kyushu in Japan.
Our Superior (No. 1) matcha is sources from the Kirishima Mountains in Kagoshima and our Traditional (No. 2) matcha and Latte grade (No. 3) is sources from the Yame region.
Grades & quality
What are the different grades of matcha?
Ceremonial grade: High-quality, vibrant green, ideal for traditional preparation with water.
Premium/Latte grade: Great for everyday use and lattes; slightly less refined but still smooth.
Culinary grade: Designed for cooking and baking, more robust and slightly bitter.
How can I tell if matcha is good quality?
A vivid green color (not dull or brownish).
A smooth, fine texture (no grittiness).
A rich umami flavor with minimal bitterness.
Authenticity: It should be from Japan.
Rest assured, Matchatori is crafted to the highest quality standards.
What quality is your matcha?
We specialize in high-quality matcha, offering a range of ceremonial-grade options to suit different preferences.
Our Superior (No. 1) and Traditional (No. 2) matcha are both exceptional ceremonial-grade teas of the highest quality.
For those who enjoy a more affordable option, our Latte Grade (No. 3) is also classified as ceremonial grade, though it’s slightly less premium than our top-tier selections.
What quality is best for me?
The best matcha quality for you depends on how you plan to use it and your personal taste preferences. Here's a quick guide to help you decide:
- Superior (No. 1): If you’re seeking the highest quality ceremonial-grade matcha with a smooth, rich umami flavor and vibrant green color, this is ideal for traditional preparation with just water. Perfect for matcha connoisseurs or those looking for the best possible experience.
- Traditional (No. 2): A fantastic choice for those who want premium ceremonial-grade matcha but at a slightly more approachable price. It’s great for daily whisked matcha, offering excellent flavor and quality for traditional tea preparation.
- Latte Grade (No. 3): If you prefer matcha lattes or enjoy experimenting with matcha in smoothies or recipes, this is a great option. While still ceremonial grade, it’s slightly less refined, making it ideal for mixing with milk or other ingredients.
In short, go for Superior (No 1) if you want the very best, Traditional (No 2) for everyday premium matcha, and Latte Grade (No 3) if you’re making drinks or recipes that involve milk or sweeteners!
How to prepare matcha
Do I need a bamboo whisk (chasen) to make matcha?
A bamboo whisk is ideal for achieving a smooth, frothy matcha, but you can also use a milk frother or blender if needed.
Do I need to sift Matchatori?
We recommend sifting Matchatori to ensure a perfectly smooth cup, but its ultra-fine texture means it’s not essential—honestly, we skip it for everyday use!
What water temperature should I use?
Use water around 80°C (175°F) to avoid burning the matcha, which can make it taste bitter.
Can I use matcha in recipes?
Definitely! Matcha is great in smoothies, baked goods, ice cream, and even savory dishes like matcha salt or sauces. We recommend our Latte Grade Matcha for those purposes.
Can I mix matcha with milk or sweeteners?
Yes! Matcha lattes are popular. Many people use plant-based or regular milk, and sweeteners like honey or agave can balance the flavor.
Storage & shelf life
How should I store matcha?
Keep matcha in an airtight container away from light, heat, and moisture. Refrigeration can extend its freshness, but make sure the container is tightly sealed to avoid moisture absorption.
How long does matcha last?
Once opened, matcha retains its best flavor and color for about 1-2 months if stored properly. Unopened, it can last 6-12 months.
It’s safe to consume the matcha after that time, though the flavor may be slightly impacted.
