About us

爽やか

Sawayaka Matcha

Our name comes from the Japanese word sawayaka, meaning refreshing, fresh and clear. That is exactly what our matcha is like: smooth, gently sweet, full of aroma and with a distinct umami.

Our mission

A moment just for you

We are an independent brand offering premium matcha from Japan, made for your daily ritual.

We believe good tea is more than a drink – it is a moment of calm in your day. We choose every cultivar we offer to taste as good as it looks: deep green, soft and mellow.

We hope you fall in love with its taste and aroma as easily as we did.

Matcha has been part of my mornings for years. I was looking for one that is a pleasure to drink – mellow, velvety and never bitter. I found it in Shizuoka, and today I'm happy to share it with you.
