Ocha & Co. Japanese Kyoto Uji Matcha Green Tea Powder This is our highest grade matcha, prepared from young first flush green tea leaves. Kyoto Uji Matcha is a very mellow and refined premium powdered green tea, stone-milled in the traditional way. This is a premium matcha at a price that you can afford. Ocha & Co. was set up after a trip back home in 2011 and a search for quality Japanese Green Teas . There just wasn’t any! The aim of the company is to provide the same quality and range of teas you would normally buy if living in Japan. The teas come from a JAS certified organic green tea farming co-operative in Shizuoka where they grow and prepare the different available types on sale. Small batches are shipped from the manufacturer each month to ensure long shelf-life and freshness. The teas have been selected for the overseas market to strike a balance between quality and affordability and can found in high-end supermarkets and retails outlets in Japan such as Kinokuniya (see picture). Teas from Ocha & Co. were selected to represent Japan at the 2015 Speciality & Fine Food Fair at Olympia in London – the leading event for quality artisan foods in the UK (see picture) and we also exhibit at the Tokyo Biofach Organic Trade Show each year. Simple, clean minimalistic packaging with stylized Japanese calligraphy. The Ocha & Co range now covers most of the types of tea readily drunk in Japan, namely; Sencha, Fukamushi cha (deep steamed sencha), Kukicha (stems and twigs), Genmai Matcha (roasted brown rice, sencha and matcha) and Matcha. The teas are usually shipped Airmail the same day and only take between 7-10 days to arrive from Japan.
