Matcha is finely ground green tea powder made from shade-grown leaves—so instead of steeping and tossing the leaves, you’re drinking the whole thing. It’s smooth, earthy, and naturally energizing without the crash. Think of it as green tea’s more focused, more vibrant cousin—with better color, better flavor, and way more personality 😎.

It's our own name, but inspired by the Japanese words for “pure” (清, kiyo) and “tea” (茶, cha). Think: clean energy, honest ritual.

We source directly from small farms in Shizuoka, Japan—no middlemen, no filler. It’s single-origin, ceremonial grade, and stone-milled fresh. If it doesn’t taste smooth and vibrant, we don’t sell it.

It’s normal! Sift it before whisking if you want the smoothest froth. A fine mesh strainer works great.

After opening, keep it sealed and in the fridge. Don’t leave it on your sunlit kitchen shelf next to your spices unless you want matcha that smells like cumin.

Roughly 60–70mg per serving—less than coffee, but steadier. You’ll feel focused, not frantic.

Sure—but maybe don’t mix it with double-choc-mint whey and expect harmony. Matcha + vanilla or plain protein? Go for it.

Some of our blends are certified organic, others are not—but all are grown without pesticides or chemical fertilizers. We prioritize quality and clean farming over labels alone.

Not strictly. A whisk gives the best texture, but a milk frother or shaker bottle can work. We're not here to judge your method—we’re just here to make sure your matcha tastes good.

Yes! We’ve brewed matcha at festivals and thrift markets in Australia, and we’re always down to travel with a whisk. See our [Events page] to find us next.

You can, but it's kind of like brushing your teeth with a twig. It'll work... just not well.

Oh naur!!! Sorry to hear that. Due to food safety, we can’t accept opened tins—but if something’s wrong, reach out. We’re real people and we’ll fix it.

We currently ship within Australia. International coming soon—hang tight or email us if you're desperate, we get it.

We’re proudly based in Australia, with roots in Vietnam and sourcing direct from Japan. Multicultural, just like your pantry😉
