Sourced directly from the high-altitude, misty valleys of Yame, Fukuoka. An elite, organic-JAS certified ceremonial tea with absolute zero bitterness. Almost entirely consumed within Japan—until now.

知名詐称の実態

The "Kyoto" Masquerade:
A Scandal in the Tea Industry.

The world knows "Uji Matcha." Because of this, massive international brands exploit the name. We discovered European shops selling Shizuoka tea as "Kyoto Kakegawa Tea"—a geographical impossibility.

Even worse, we discovered that premium Yame matcha from our partner farms was being exported, repackaged, and sold under the label of "Uji Matcha." Its natural sweetness and lack of bitterness are so supreme that it was easily used to masquerade as Kyoto's most expensive teas.

We chose to stop the game. We bypass the middlemen, export directly from Yame, and honor the true artisan families who grow this miracle tea.

Pure Yame Matcha
標高の高い秘境
Yame High Altitude Terroir

Cultivated in Fog & Altitude.
Beyond the Tourist Cities.

Unlike the commercially packed fields close to tourist areas in Kyoto, Yame's tea gardens are carved into the steep, high-altitude mountains of Fukuoka.

The Shading Lie: In the West, cheap "matcha" is flooding the market. But most of it is actually just pulverized regular green tea. By Japanese definition, if the tea plants were not shaded before harvest, it is not Matcha. It is just green tea powder. Read our in-depth shading guide.

True ceremonial matcha requires intensive Shading (Tana-covered / Oishita-saibai). We cover our Yame fields with dark shading nets for at least 20 to 30 days before harvest. Denied sunlight, the tea leaves generate massive amounts of chlorophyll and L-Theanine—giving our tea its electric green color and rich, creamy, sweet umami flavor with absolute zero bitterness.

This terroir is why Yame tea consistently wins the top gold awards at the National Tea Exhibition in Japan, far outperforming Uji in blind taste-tests by government tea masters.

Organic JAS Certified

Not USDA. We adhere to Japan’s strictest Organic Agricultural Standards, ensuring chemical-free mountain soil and clean spring water cultivation.

True Shade-Grown

We shade-cover our plants for 20 to 30 days prior to harvest. Shading is what separates real Matcha from cheap powdered green tea. Zero cutting corners.

Direct to Farm

We buy directly from Yame farmers at their requested price. By removing exporters and wholesale brokers, we ensure absolute authenticity and fresh packaging.

Fair Price Policy

We never discount. If you find "ceremonial" matcha cheaper than ours, it is mathematically impossible for it to be pure, fresh, and ethically sourced from Japan.

Saving a Dying Art:
A Letter from Karen & Her Husband.

We are not a faceless tea corporation. We are a small, husband-and-wife team—Karen and her husband—passionately dedicated to preserving the purest forms of Japanese artisan culture.

Today, the traditional Japanese tea industry faces a silent crisis. Due to aging populations and a severe lack of younger successors, multi-generational tea farms are going out of business or abandoning their fields at an alarming rate. Truly master-grade tea is disappearing.

To combat this, we travel to the misty valleys of Yame ourselves. We sit down with the farmers, listen to their stories, and buy their hand-tended harvests directly at their requested prices. By paying fair value and eliminating middleman brokers, we help ensure these family farms survive—and you receive 100% authentic, fresh-packed tea that cannot be found in mass markets.
