Our ethos

Celadon Matcha is our nod to the immutable beauty found in our past, uncovered in a reverent ritual for the present.

We return to the origin of matcha, not in Japan, but in 11th-century China during the height of the Song dynasty. It was during this time that the practice of whisking powdered tea was first invented, then enjoyed by both emperors and commoners alike.

We source our matcha from the very same tea hills that have grown China’s finest green tea for centuries, evoking the untarnished flavours of a bygone age.

*8% of each purchase supports Oxfam's poverty relief efforts in rural China (HK Section 88 Charity).

Frequently asked questions

Isn't matcha supposed to be Japanese?

Matcha is Japanese by preservation, but Chinese by origin. During the Song Dynasty (960–1279), the reigning method of consuming tea was to steam the leaves, grind them into a powder, and whisk them into a froth. Zen monks brought this ritual from China to Japan, where it was perfected and protected while China moved on to steep loose-leaf tea. Japan kept the flame alive. We are simply returning to the initial spark.

Where is Celadon Matcha sourced?

Celadon Matcha is shade-grown and carefully milled in China, honouring the historical Song Dynasty traditions where powdered tea originated. We partner directly with specific estates to ensure our leaves meet the exact cultivation, shading, and milling standards required of premium ceremonial-grade matcha.

How should I store my matcha to maintain its freshness?

Matcha is sensitive to heat, light, and moisture. Before opening, keep the tin in a cool, dark place. Once opened, we highly recommend storing the tightly sealed tin in a cool and dry place. For the best flavour and maximum nutritional benefit, we suggest consuming the matcha within 60 days of opening.
