Description
Charaku Premium Matcha comes from fields high in the mountains of the Nishio region of central Japan, the country's premier location for growing naturally grown Tencha, the base tea to produce Matcha. Only the best leaves are hand-picked and granite stone-milled to produce our high quality Matcha. Naturally grown with no synthetic pesticides or fertilizers. Cultivation methods are certified by Japan Agriculture Standards, the Japanese government's regulatory agency. While Matcha has for centuries been associated with the Tea Ceremony, it can also be enjoyed anytime to enhance the health of our physical and spiritual lives. Experience the taste, history, tradition, and health benefits of Charaku Premium Naturally Grown Matcha.
**Pricing Note: Again in 2026, late spring and early summer auction prices in Japan for Uji and other Matcha regions saw price increases of as much as double, and sometimes more, over last year's prices; which were also sometimes double the year before. We've been fortunate to see only modest increases in prices for our Nishio Matcha. Still, prices from Japan have increased pretty much across the board for Matcha as well as other leaf teas affected by the Matcha boom. We're striving to keep prices as low as possible, and for as long as possible. Thank you for your understanding, and continued patronage.
