Marukyu Koyamaen is one of the most prestigious tea makers in Japan, having been producing matcha tea since 1704. Having developed the original production system, they now use a combination of modern and traditional processes to maintain as many historic elements as possible. They don’t grind matcha tea manually anymore, but they do use traditional stones. Supplying top tea ceremony schools, high ranking shrines and temples, and top hotels, they’ve won numerous tea competition awards.

We recommend storing your matcha in the refrigerator once opened. For the best flavour and colour, we recommend finishing the tin within 8 weeks of opening.

Gift Wrapping Service

For a special finishing touch, add our gift wrapping service to your cart and your order will be carefully wrapped in a reusable Japanese furoshiki cloth, reflecting the beauty and tradition of Japanese gift giving. Available for an additional £5.50.

Understanding Japanese Best Before Dates

Our best before dates follow the Japanese system (YY/MM/DD). You can find the best before date on the bottom of the tin.

Our tea is produced by some of the most prestigious tea makers in Japan. As they take great pride in their Matcha, they give it a six month best before date once ground.
