Expensive? Yes, it is. However - if you are in search of the absolute best matcha available anywhere, your search is over! This matcha has never been sold outside of Japan, until now. A few words about this item...
  • The first thing you will notice about this matcha is its wonderful aroma. Extremely aromatic!

  • The grower has an extremely small production, and is currently supplying only the local market with this grade, so the supply is extremely limited. O-Cha.com will have this item in stock as supplies are available, which will be very hit and miss.

  • The grower will never increase his production.

  • The typical customer in Japan who purchases this matcha are the tea ceremony instructors - because they know it to be the best.

  • In the Uji area where this tea is grown, the grower is well known, and has written a book on the art of growing Tencha (the tea leaves from which matcha is derived.) He has won numerous awards for his Tencha from the Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries.
The taste of Manten is very distinctive and there is no competition for this grade - this is a connoisseur's class matcha. O-Cha.com is the first to carry this matcha outside of Japan. Koi-cha (Thick tea) is sweeter, more milder tasting than Usu-cha. Because twice the amount of tea powder is used to make a thicker tea, a milder, less bitter product is required. Net Weight 30gm

I love this stuff. This is becoming the only matcha I drink anymore (oh, my wallet!). Yes, it's expensive, but absolutely worth it. It is very sweet, I don't detect any bitterness or chalkiness. The taste is incredible. It's intense, but well-balanced and not overpowering. Very calming and relaxing experience. Again, I can't say how much I love this matcha. Thank you for offering it Kevin. I definitely appreciate it.

'Manten' means under the whole of the heavens or the whole world and while my experience with high class matcha is limited I can say it is the best I've ever had by far, the best in the world to me. It is good enough and expensive enough

Just wanted to let you know what a pleasure it is to shop at o-cha.com. The info on the website is very informative and helpful. Every tea I've ordered (5 different kinds so far) has been awesome. I've also ordered a teapot, matcha whisk, and travel whisk. Every item arrived packed very well and each item is exactly as described. Thanks for making it so easy for me to have such great tea and tea ware from Japan for my own daily tea ceremony!

Hi Kevin,

I have bought a few items from you and have been extremely happy with them.

They were: A Tokoname Kyusu teapot, two cups, Sencha tea, Matcha tea and I am waiting on my green tea scoop. You and your website offer exceptional products and the quality is extraordinary, not to mention the customer service which is also phenomenal and friendly.

I will definitely be ordering much more in the future from you.

I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE your teas!; and I loved brewing the Sencha in my Kyusu it adds to the experience and joy of drinking them.

Thank you for this website and offering the products.
Richard
