Origin

What is matcha?

Matcha powder is made from tencha, a green tea leaf that is shade-grown for around three weeks. The leaves are steamed and dried after harvest and are not rolled like other tea leaves. The stems are also removed.

Why shading?

Shading is a crucial step in matcha production. The limited exposure to sunlight allows the plant to maintain higher levels of L-theanine, which are responsible for the tea's savory, brothy flavor (umami). Shading also increases chlorophyll in the leaves because photosynthesis intensifies as sunlight is reduced. This results in more vibrant and green tea leaves.

Why Cuzen tea leaf?

  • Certified organic

    Only a small percentage of Japanese tea farms are fully organic. We make sure to source our shade-grown, whole matcha leaves from organic farmers, because we know that when you drink matcha, you are consuming the entire leaf.

  • In a kitchen, a person pours a packet of Signature Matcha Leaf into the Matcha Maker’s hopper.

    Made for the Cuzen Matcha Maker

    The size, shape and fully-roasted condition of our leaves are optimized to work with the compact ceramic mill inside our Cuzen Matcha Maker.

  • A saucerful of bright and deep green matcha leaves, with a bamboo scoop resting on top.

    Limited access

    Typically, tea farmers only sell whole matcha leaves to tea companies, who in turn only offer pre-ground matcha to customers. We deliver our whole leaves directly to Cuzenists, in a state where oxidation is minimized, and health benefits can be optimized.

  • A close photo of the dark, rich soil between two rows of tea plants.

    A nurturing practice

    We’re proud to work with farming partners who use only natural pest deterrents and organic fertilizers. They not only yield a more nutritious and flavorful leaf, they also take care of our shared planet.

  • A bright green matcha latte in a white cup and saucer, next to a packet of Cuzen Latte Blend Matcha Leaf.

    A quality, fresh cup at home

    Convenient, delicious and easy on the wallet, our matcha costs about one dollar per shot, so the initial investment is covered very quickly.

Grown in a special place

The farms, located in the Kirishima area (literally “fog island”) of Kagoshima Prefecture, are terrific natural environments for tea growth. The high altitude means fewer insects can live there, plus there’s usually a good amount of moisture in the air and plenty of sun, which help to produce healthy leaves.

Love Cuzen Matcha!

This is part of my morning ritual. Love hearing my Cuzen Matcha grinding my tea for a nice, fresh tasting glass of Matcha tea latte first thing each day.

Best matcha ever

I think the matcha is better than any coffee shop's, and I've completely stopped wasting money on it at cafés. The only problem is that I run out of my monthly subscription too fast, and the delivery feels like it takes forever. Thank y'all!

Love these, miss them when they're gone

It's hard to describe the subtle yet powerful influence this tea has on me as part of my morning ritual. It is expensive and it's worth it if you want a clean energy source with great taste. I am sad when I travel and do not have access to my Cuzen matcha lattes, highly recommend for those on the fence considering if it's worth it.
