Ichibancha Ceremonial Grade Matcha

Perfect for traditional preparation.
Ichibancha means “first tea”, referring to the first harvest of tea leaves in the spring.A ceremonial grade matcha crafted from the finest spring tea harvests, showcasing the purest expression of terroir. Delicately floral on the nose, with beautifully balanced sweet and savoury notes, and a bright ‘cut grass’ finish.
There are no nose-pinching, bitter green drinks here. We use only Ceremonial grade Matcha for its smooth, mellow finish and naturally vibrant colour. Revered for having a smoother caffeine-buzz than coffee, antioxidant-rich matcha has become the drink of choice for many.
To appreciate the best of this sweet and delicate matcha we recommend making it in a traditional, ceremonial style or drunk cold with water – still or sparkling!

BLENDS WITH BENEFITS

  • FIRST FLUSH

    Sourced from Uji, Japan, Ichibancha is made from delicately picked, first-flush spring tea leaves for a bright, beautifully balanced flavour.

  • shade grown

    The tea plants are shade-grown before harvest, increasing chlorophyll and amino acid content to create matcha’s vibrant green colour and rich flavour.  

  • SIP AND SIT BACK

    Traditionally whisked with hot water, Ichibancha is best enjoyed simply to appreciate its delicate, sweet and floral flavour. 

let's brew ichibancha

To enjoy hot, combine 2g of matcha (½ tsp / 2 bamboo scoops) with 15ml of 70°C water in a warmed bowl. Whisk to create a smooth paste, then add the remaining 50ml of water and whisk until combined for a smooth, creamy finish.
