Ceremonial Japanese Matcha from Chiran, Kagoshima
Chiran Ceremonial Grade Matcha is made for people who want matcha in its purest daily form: clean energy, calm focus, and a rich Japanese tea ritual without the heaviness of coffee.
This matcha is sourced from Chiran in Kagoshima, one of Japan's respected tea-growing regions. It is made from first-harvest shade-grown tea leaves and stone-ground into a fine, vibrant green powder with a smooth umami profile.
Why this matcha is different
- Origin: Chiran, Kagoshima, Japan
- Grade: Ceremonial grade matcha
- Harvest: First harvest Ichibancha leaves
- Cultivars: Asanoka, Saemidori and Yutakamidori
- Shade-grown: 22 days for deeper sweetness, umami and color
- Caffeine: 60-70mg per 2g serving
- Ingredients: 100% pure Japanese matcha powder with no additives
Made for clean energy and calm focus
Matcha contains caffeine naturally present in green tea, along with L-theanine. Together, they create a smoother kind of alertness that many people prefer for focused work, study, creative sessions, training days, and morning rituals.
If coffee feels too sharp or leaves you restless, ceremonial matcha can be a cleaner daily alternative. It gives you energy with a slower, steadier feel and a quiet ritual that helps you start the day with intention.
Taste profile
Expect a vibrant jade-green color, a naturally sweet aroma, rich umami, a creamy mouthfeel, and a smooth finish with very low bitterness when prepared correctly.

There are a few reasons for bitter tea. Try using a less leaves to brew or reduce the temperature of boiling water to 80C. We recommend cold/ice brewing your tea to cut out the bitterness.
Green tea is a delicate beverage, with the taste changing depending on how it is brewed. While there are ways of brewing to ensure the "most delicious" flavour, it is essentially a drink that comes down to individual tastes. Finding one's own preferred way of brewing it could be said to be one part of the enjoyment. As with all things, it starts from the basics. Using sencha, which most people can drink almost any time, the "Tea Professionals" Hamada's Chashi (Tea masters) will initiate you into how to brew different types of tea.
