ABOUT OUR ORGANIC MATCHA
Premium organic matcha from Japan — stone-ground & shade-grown
At DieTees you'll find premium organic matcha from certified cultivation in Japan. Our range covers two quality grades: the Bio Japan Matcha Daily for everyday enjoyment and the Bio Japan Matcha Ceremonial for the traditional tea ceremony. Both are stone-ground in organic mills and packed aroma-sealed in light-proof aluminium pouches.
Matcha is finely ground green tea from Japan — unlike classic tea, you don't drink the infusion but the entire tea leaf. The young tencha leaves are shaded for several weeks before harvest, which creates the characteristic sweet umami flavour and the vibrant green colour. A traditional stone mill grinds only about 30–40 g of matcha per hour — gently and preserving the full aroma.
Organic matcha naturally contains caffeine — around 30–70 mg per serving (1 g in 60–80 ml of water), depending on the quality grade and dosage. That places matcha in the range from green tea up to black tea.

QUALITY GRADES
What types of matcha are there?
Matcha can be broadly divided into two main categories — depending on harvest time and grind fineness. At DieTees you'll find both:
- Daily Matcha — regular harvest, finely ground, a little stronger in taste. Ideal for matcha latte, smoothies, baking and cold drinks.
- Ceremonial Matcha — first harvest (ichibancha), especially finely ground. Delicate, velvety, with a more elegant umami — perfect for the classic tea ceremony and for drinking matcha plain.
Looking for classic brewed tea from the same plant? Take a look at our green tea category with sencha, bancha and more. Other processing stages of Camellia sinensis can be found in the white tea category, the oolong category or under black tea.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Answers about matcha
What is matcha and how does it differ from green tea?
Matcha is finely ground Japanese green tea. Unlike a classic infusion, you drink the entire tea leaf — finely ground into a vibrant green powder. The young tencha leaves are shaded for several weeks before harvest, which creates the characteristic sweet umami flavour. More about classic green tea in our green tea category.
Does matcha contain caffeine?
Yes — matcha naturally contains caffeine, around 30–70 mg per serving (1 g in 60–80 ml of water), depending on the quality grade. Because matcha is consumed at a higher concentration than brewed green tea, the caffeine content per cup is somewhat higher.
How is matcha prepared properly?
Per serving, place 1–2 bamboo scoops (about 1 g) of matcha in a matcha bowl. Pour on 60–80 ml of water at 70–80 °C — never boiling, otherwise matcha turns bitter. Whisk with the bamboo whisk (chasen) using W-shaped movements until a fine froth forms. Enjoy right away.
What is the difference between Daily and Ceremonial Matcha?
Daily Matcha comes from the regular harvest, is finely ground and a little stronger in taste — ideal for matcha latte, smoothies and baking. Ceremonial Matcha is from the first harvest (ichibancha), especially finely ground, with a finer, more velvety umami character — perfect for the classic tea ceremony and for drinking plain.
What accessories do I need for matcha?
For the authentic preparation you need four components: a chasen (bamboo whisk — the finer the bristles, the finer the froth), a chashaku (bamboo scoop for dosing), a chawan (matcha bowl — wide and shallow, ideal for whisking) and a matcha jar for light-protected storage. You'll find everything in our tea accessories category.
How should matcha be stored?
After opening, store it cool, dark and airtight — ideally in a matcha jar in the fridge. That preserves the vibrant green colour and the fresh aroma. Tip: before opening, keep it light-proof in the aluminium pouch; once opened, use it up within 4–6 weeks — otherwise matcha loses aroma and colour.
Can matcha be prepared cold?
Yes — stir it into cold water using a shaker or whisk. Ideal for an iced matcha latte in summer. Alternatively: shake 1 g of matcha vigorously in 200 ml of cold water (cold brew method). Cold preparation tastes milder and less bitter than hot.
