matcha is the greatest of green teas. or you might say, it's the greenest. celebrated for hundreds of years for its unique and abundant nutritional properties. steeped in the rich tradition of the zen buddhist ceremonies of japan. ground into a fine, emerald-green powder, matcha is whisked with water to create a unique, beautiful and flavorful drink.

the story of matcha has caught the imagination of tea enthusiasts around the globe. but not all matchas are created equal. like great works of art, there are poor imitations and the real thing.

muzi matcha is the real thing.

muzi matcha shares its heritage with the exclusive tea served in buddhist temples and tea schools throughout japan. grown in the rich soil of the nishio tea plantations, muzi matcha is made with 100% nishio region tencha tea leaves and custom blended for our customers.

tencha is the secret behind muzi matcha's resiliently green hue and rich flavor. substantially different from the gyokuro and sencha tea leaves used by other japanese and chinese tea manufacturers, the proof is in the color. a rich green color indicates a high quality matcha, while yellow or brown greens are the mark of a poor quality tea . the tencha tea leaves provide a markedly deeper, richer color. of green than the others, and therefore, a superior, tea.
