From Fresh Tencha Leaves to Finished Matcha Powder
Tea leaves are carefully shade-grown before harvest to develop the rich umami, vibrant green color, and signature aroma essential for premium matcha.
Immediately after harvest, humid airflow circulates beneath the leaf storage area to maintain freshness and prevent unwanted fermentation or heat buildup. Excess stems are partially removed before processing.
The leaves are steamed for approximately 20 seconds to stop oxidation enzymes while preserving their bright green color and characteristic shaded aroma.
After steaming, strong airflow transfers the hot leaves into a cooling chamber called an “Andon,” where they are evenly spread and rapidly cooled to protect color and aroma quality.
The leaves are dried using carefully controlled hot air to balance aroma, flavor, and the delicate leaf structure required for tencha production.
Additional stems and impurities are removed while the tencha is evaluated for color, flavor potential, and final matcha vibrancy after milling.
A sterilization process is performed to enhance food safety and maintain stable product quality while protecting flavor and color.
The tencha is slowly milled into ultra-fine matcha powder using traditional stone mills and modern bead milling technology, then finely sifted for smooth texture and consistent particle size.
The finished matcha is packed under controlled conditions to preserve freshness, aroma, and vibrant green color.
Each batch undergoes quality and safety testing to ensure consistent specifications, food safety compliance, and product performance.
