Sourced from a historic, JGAP-certified cooperative estate that has been honored with Japan's ultimate agricultural accolade:
The Minister’s Award. Recognized with multiple Minister of Agriculture Awards for their mastery of shade-grown teas, this matcha is the result of decades of award-winning craftsmanship.
Minister of Agriculture Award: While this is Japan's highest agricultural honor, the award is given out annually to multiple farms across various regions (such as Uji, Yame, Shizuoka, and Kagoshima).
The quality of our tea is guided by the expertise of certified Japanese tea instructors who have earned top honors, including first and second place, at the prestigious National Unpasteurized Tea Review and Technical Committee. Our dedication to the craft is further reflected in a long history of accolades, headlined by the Minister of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries Award. Our teas are consistent winners at elite levels, including:
The National Tea Competition
The Kansai Tea Competition
