Wa Blend Matcha

Produced in Minamiyamashiro Village, Kyoto, this single-cultivar matcha blend is grown by a group of local farmers. Shaded for an average of 25 days and harvested in May 2025, it is milled on traditional ishi-usu stone mills in Uji, Kyoto. The matcha offers a soft nuttiness with balanced astringency and light umami. For preparation, it shows best with cooler water; keep the temperature below 158°F for optimal flavor. It also makes a beautiful iced matcha americano.

The Best Matcha I've Ever Had!!!

Johnny Matcha's matcha is so smooth and fresh tasting! I drink it every morning in a coconut milk, ice frap-like blend. I love the way it energies me. I feel awake and ready to go, but I'm also chill, and focused, not antsy. I would highly recommend trying any of the Matcha blends.

A latte for a little

I've been hunting for a bargain matcha that I knew was still completely pure and safe. This stuff is delicious with just a splash of soy or oat milk. It's weaning me off coffee! Glad to know it's supporting multi-generation family farms as well.

Best taste with the best customer service!

Had a delay in my shipment due to relocation and he refunded my shipping costs and sent me an extra bag of matcha! Didn’t have to do that but wow how nice ☺️ will be re-ordering!

A true Yabukita

The color is bright, the scent strong and deep, the flavor an earthy umami. Works really well for lattes, but holds up well as thin tea as well due to the strong presence of umami. Perfect for fall or with dessert.
