The tea plants are shaded for 21 days before harvesting, allowing the leaves to accumulate more theanine and chlorophyll, which preserves sweetness and reduces bitterness.

“Harvesting”
Only the freshest tender top buds are picked, and harvesting takes place just once each spring.

“Tencha Processing”
After the tea is steamed to stop oxidation, it is left unrolled, with stems and veins removed to preserve the leaf-flake shape and reduce impurities in the final matcha.

"Grinding"
Using traditional low-temperature stone-mill grinding, it produces only 40g of matcha powder per hour while preserving active components and nutrients, achieving a fineness of over 1200 mesh.
