Culinary Reserve Matcha

Culinary Reserve is our culinary matcha: the same Japanese green tea we sell by the pound to cafés and professional kitchens, now sized for yours. It is a bolder, deeper cup than our ceremonial grades, and that is the point. This is the matcha that holds its flavor through milk, sweetness, ice, and heat.

Use it for lattes, iced matcha, smoothies, and anything that goes in the oven. A teaspoon whisked into a splash of hot water and topped with steamed milk makes a café latte at home. A tablespoon folded into batter turns a pound cake green and grassy.

It comes from a family that has been selecting and making matcha for 400 years. Mike Harney and his team select it, and our tasting team cups every new lot before it ships, the way we have chosen every tea for four decades.
