A perfect introduction to the art of matcha

Ichi – whose name means „one" in Japanese – is our discovery matcha. It delivers everything you'd expect from a matcha that's good, beautiful and accessible. Ichi invites you on a journey between the elegance of Japanese tradition and the creativity of the modern world, embodied by the matcha latte.

Its name is a nod to the Japanese philosophy of Ichi-go Ichi-e („one time, one meeting"). In the spirit of cha no yu (the tea ceremony), every bowl is an invitation to savour the moment.

Available in a 30 g airtight tin and a 90 g refill pouch.

Terroirs of excellence

Behind its emerald-green colour lies precise know-how. This delicious ceremonial-grade matcha is built on a subtle blend of tencha from two of Japan's iconic terroirs: Kagoshima and Shizuoka.

Crafted from 10- to 40-year-old tea plants of the Saemidori and Yabukita cultivars, harvested in spring and autumn, it offers a balanced taste and a vibrant green powder.

The natural benefits of matcha

Matcha is naturally rich in antioxidants, provides long-lasting energy and helps support focus.
