Frequently Asked Questions

Ceremonial is our highest grade — smooth, delicate and best enjoyed whisked with water. Barista grade is bolder and designed to cut through milk in lattes and iced drinks. Culinary grade is our most robust grade, made for baking, smoothies and recipes where matcha needs to hold its flavor. Every bag is clearly labelled so you always know what you're getting.

Flush refers to the harvest. First flush (spring) produces the youngest, most delicate leaves — used for our Ceremonial grade. Second flush leaves are bolder, used for Barista. Third flush is the most robust, used for Culinary. The earlier the harvest, the smoother the taste.
