Une énergie plus durable
Grâce à l’association naturelle de caféine et de L-théanine, le matcha offre une énergie plus progressive et équilibrée. Idéal pour rester éveillé et dynamique plus longtemps, sans rechercher le coup de boost brutal du café.
Grown in the Shizuoka region of Japan, this exceptional matcha reflects 750 years of tradition. It is sourced from the Yabukita variety, the most popular both in Japan and internationally, chosen for its perfect balance between umami and light bitterness, while remaining subtle and accessible. It is the ideal gateway to discovering authentic matcha.
This matcha is ceremonial grade, meaning it comes from the first spring harvests: the youngest and most tender leaves, carefully handpicked. Three weeks before harvest, the tea plants are shaded to enhance the L-theanine content, reduce bitterness, and intensify the green color.
After the harvest, the leaves are processed into tencha: stems and veins are removed, leaving only the finest part. They are then slowly ground between two stone mills, an ancient artisanal technique that guarantees a fine, silky powder rich in aromas and nutrients.
🌿 A pure and organic matcha, with no compromise on quality.
With its delicate texture and refined taste, it will delight both purists and the curious. Enjoy it hot or cold, simply with water, or as a latte. At TSUKI, we love pairing it with a smooth plant-based milk such as oat, almond, or rice milk, which enhances its subtlety — but feel free to create your own ritual.

The young tea leaves are then processed into tencha and slowly ground on traditional stone mills, following centuries-old Japanese craftsmanship, to produce an ultra-fine powder with a vibrant green color.
This matcha blends the authenticity of Japanese tea with the delicate sweetness of natural vanilla, offering an experience that’s both refined and approachable. Enjoy it as a smooth, creamy latte or in its traditional form for a moment of calm and indulgence.
Les bienfaits du matcha
Plus de focus et de concentration
La caféine stimule la vigilance, tandis que la L-théanine est étudiée pour son rôle sur l’attention, notamment lorsqu’elle est associée à la caféine. Un duo qui accompagne les moments où l’on veut rester alerte, concentré et efficace.
Calme et sérénité au quotidien
Naturellement présent dans le thé, la L-théanine est associée à un état de relaxation tout en préservant l’attention. Le matcha offre ainsi cette combinaison particulière entre éveil et sensation de calme.
Une protection antioxydante puissante
Le matcha est naturellement riche en polyphénols et catéchines, dont l’EGCG, connus pour leur activité antioxydante. Ils participent à la protection des cellules contre le stress oxydatif au quotidien.
Une peau plus éclatante
Les catéchines du matcha apportent une importante activité antioxydante et contribuent à lutter contre le stress oxydatif, l’un des phénomènes impliqués dans le vieillissement cellulaire. Un atout intéressant dans une approche globale de la santé et de l’éclat de la peau.
Une digestion plus équilibrée
Les polyphénols du thé vert interagissent avec les micro-organismes présents dans notre intestin et font aujourd’hui l’objet de nombreuses recherches. Ils pourraient participer à l’équilibre du microbiote intestinal, même si ce domaine reste encore en exploration.
Un métabolisme plus actif
L’association des catéchines du thé vert et de la caféine a été étudiée pour son influence sur la dépense énergétique et l’oxydation des graisses. Le matcha peut ainsi accompagner naturellement un métabolisme énergétique actif, avec des effets qui restent modestes.
Prendre soin de son cœur
La consommation régulière de thé vert est associée à certains marqueurs cardiovasculaires favorables, notamment au niveau des lipides sanguins. Ses polyphénols en font un allié intéressant dans le cadre d’un mode de vie favorable à la santé cardiovasculaire.
Des cheveux brillants et en bonne santé
Grâce à ses antioxydants et micronutriments, le matcha s’intègre naturellement dans une alimentation tournée vers la beauté de l’intérieur. Il contribue surtout à la protection contre le stress oxydatif, plutôt qu’à un effet direct démontré sur la brillance des cheveux.
Une meilleure santé bucco-dentaire
Les catéchines du thé vert sont notamment étudiées pour leurs propriétés antibactériennes et leur interaction avec certaines bactéries présentes dans la bouche. Elles pourraient ainsi contribuer au maintien d’un environnement buccal équilibré.

Here's a quick comparison to help you choose the one that suits your taste and use.
We collaborate directly with Japanese matcha farms
Shading of tea plants
3 to 4 weeks in the shade to boost chlorophyll and L-theanine: the matcha becomes greener, sweeter, less bitter.
Manual leaf harvesting
Only young leaves, rich in umami and with low bitterness, are hand-picked, one by one, at the ideal time of the season.
Sorting & drying tencha
The leaves are carefully sorted, stripped of their stems and veins, then slowly dried to form tencha.
Stone grinding
Tencha is slowly ground between two granite millstones to produce a fine, silky, nutrient-rich powder. This guarantees the powder's fineness.

Questions about our matchas
Our Original Matcha is ideal for a traditional tasting, simply whisked with water. The Vanilla Matcha offers a softer and slightly gourmet version. The Culinary Matcha is designed for recipes, lattes, and pastry creations.
For a water-based tasting, we recommend Matcha Original. Its fine texture, vibrant color, and balanced aromatic profile allow you to fully appreciate the richness of matcha.
Vanilla Matcha or Original are perfect for lattes. Culinary Matcha, on the other hand, is ideal for smoothies, desserts, or pastries. Its more intense flavor allows it to retain its character even when mixed with milk or other ingredients.
Our Vanilla Matcha is not a sweetened product, but it does have naturally sweet and well-rounded notes. It is ideal for those who are looking for a more gourmet alternative without losing the essence of matcha.
Matcha tea
Originally from China, matcha has become a major tradition in Japan, particularly through the tea ceremony. Buddhist monks already used it to accompany their meditation.
Its three specific features
It's a powdered green tea that is whisked, not steeped. It offers powerful benefits because the entire leaf is consumed, and it can also be used as an ingredient in cooking, in drinks as well as in recipes.
How do you prepare matcha tea?
Preparing matcha tea is not just about mixing powder with hot water.
This Japanese ritual relies on a few precise steps that reveal the full delicacy of matcha: water at the right temperature, sifted powder, and vigorous whisking for a light and creamy foam.
To do this, we recommend choosing our Original Matcha or Vanilla Matcha.
In just a few minutes, you can transform your break into a true moment of calm and concentration.
With quality matcha and the right accessories, preparing your matcha at home becomes a simple, everyday pleasure.
How is our matcha tea made?
Before it reaches your bowl, matcha undergoes a precise process of cultivation and transformation, inherited from Japanese tradition.
It all begins several weeks before harvest, when the tea plants are shaded to stimulate the production of chlorophyll and L-theanine.
This shading intensifies the green color and natural sweetness of the matcha.
The young leaves are then carefully harvested, and steamed to preserve their freshness and prevent oxidation.
After drying, the stems and veins are removed, leaving only the finest part of the leaf (tencha).
Finally, this tencha is slowly ground into an extremely fine powder. This grinding preserves the aromas and achieves that deep flavor.
