7 Reasons to Love our Maison Himé’s Matcha

1- Beautiful Origins
Grown in Izumo City, Shimane Prefecture, Maison Himé’s matcha fields are nourished by cool sea air and mountain mist, resulting in a lush environment that enhances tea quality.

2- Minimal Pesticides
The tea is cultivated with nearly no pesticides, adhering to strict European and U.S. standards for safe, sustainable farming.

3- Masterfully Crafted
Yuta Oka, Japan’s 2022 champion tea master, brings his expertise to every batch, ensuring exceptional quality and tradition.

4- Innovative “Black Netting” Process
Using advanced chlorophyll measurement, our team determines the best time for “black netting,” a shading method that enriches chlorophyll for a deep green color and robust flavor.

5- Rich Umami Flavor
The unique shading process enhances the tea’s umami, delivering a savory, satisfying taste that’s perfect for matcha lovers.

6- On-Site Processing
From harvest to packaging, the entire process happens at our Izumo tea garden and factory, ensuring consistency and freshness.

7- Strict Quality Control
Every batch is screened by our chashi (茶師) or tea master, ensuring only the best matcha reaches your cup.
