Matcha

Stone-ground green tea with depth, calmness and umami. Explore matcha at Perchs – from classic matcha tea to latte and iced.

Matcha is Japanese green tea in powder form. In the production of matcha, the entire tea leaf is used, and all the useful properties of the tea are retained. The tea plants are grown in the shade, steamed, dried, and then powdered. The final result is matcha tea, a finely ground powder in a vibrant, light green color.

At Perchs, we take pride in delivering only the best, and with more than 800 years of matcha history, our teas from the Uji region must be said to speak for themselves.

The region is known for its fertile soil and clean waters, which provide the ideal conditions for growing our matcha leaves.
