Small things that make the difference.
Four details that change the cup.
Never boiling.
Use water at 80°C at most.
Not in circles.
Whisk for 10 to 15 seconds, until a fine, dense foam forms.
Pop the larger bubbles.
Lift the whisk slightly at the end.
Straight into the bowl.
Stone-ground slowly on granite mills, so fine it needs no sifting.
Hojicha works the same way.

Any questions?
Can I drink matcha if I’m sensitive to caffeine?+
Matcha contains caffeine, with one serving containing roughly the same amount as an espresso. If you’re sensitive to caffeine, start with half a serving (1g) and drink your matcha earlier in the day.
When is the best time to drink matcha to avoid sleep problems?+
Morning to early afternoon. Caffeine stays in your body for several hours, so it’s best to have your last serving 6 to 8 hours before going to bed. For late afternoons and evenings, that’s what our Hojicha is for.
How should I store my matcha to keep it fresh?+
Keep it airtight and protected from light. The resealable pouch is designed exactly for that. Matcha tastes best within 3 months of opening. If you need longer, store it in the fridge, not the freezer.
What is ceremonial-grade matcha?+
The highest quality grade: young leaves from the first spring harvest, shaded for four weeks and stone-ground using granite mills. Later harvests in summer and autumn tend to be more bitter and are used for lower grades. Our matcha is exclusively ceremonial grade.
Why matcha⁷?+
Because we work directly with a producer family in Uji and only source the first spring harvest. Organic-certified and freshly ground. The same matcha is served in specialty cafés across Switzerland.
