Hōju selection

Japanese matcha for your everyday ritual.

The supplier’s Japanese tea field
A look at the true origins of matcha: fields, shade, harvesting, drying and milling before the ritual.

Origin

Matcha begins with a leaf patiently cared for.

Hōju Matcha was created to present Japanese matcha in a clean, delicate and honest way. Behind every cup are cultivation, shade, harvest, tencha and milling.

On our origin page, we bring these images together to explore the process calmly, without turning it into a legend or a cold explanation.

Preparation

A simple, visual ritual you can repeat.

Preparing matcha need not be complicated. The key is to take care with the texture, temperature and whisking motion.

01

Sift

Sift the matcha before preparing it. This creates a finer texture and prevents lumps in the bowl.

Add water

Use hot water, but not boiling water. A gentle temperature protects the colour, aroma and flavour.

03

Whisk

Whisk briskly to create a light foam and an even texture

Whole leaf, in your cup: Con la mayoría de los tés, infusionas la hoja y la tiras. Con el matcha, bates la hoja entera, molida a piedra hasta convertirla en un polvo finísimo.

Todo lo que necesitas saber para elegir tu matcha, prepararlo bien y disfrutar al máximo de cada taza.

?

Can I prepare matcha with milk?

Sí. Todos mis matchas quedan genial con leche o bebida vegetal, y su sabor se mantiene bien en un latte. Cada producto incluye instrucciones y medidas para que prepares tu matcha perfecto.

Question 1
?

What is the difference between usucha and koicha?

Usucha is a lighter, more fluid preparation. Koicha is thicker, more intense and ceremonial. Not every matcha is ideal for both preparations.

Question 2
?

Does matcha contain caffeine?

Sí. Una ración habitual (unos 2 g de matcha) tiene aproximadamente 60–70 mg de cafeína, una cantidad parecida a la de un espresso. El matcha también contiene de forma natural L-teanina, un aminoácido presente en el té, y por eso mucha gente describe su energía como más tranquila y progresiva que la del café. Si eres sensible a la cafeína, te recomendamos tomarlo por la mañana o a primera hora de la tarde.

Question 3
?
