From Temple to Table: The Journey of Matcha

Long before matcha found its way into lattes and desserts, it was a sacred drink in Zen temples.

Originating from ancient China and perfected in Japan, matcha was more than just tea — it was meditation in motion.

At Fanji Matcha, we honor this 800-year-old tradition while cultivating our leaves in the misty highlands of Guizhou, China, where the cool climate and mountain spring water bring a smooth, umami depth unmatched elsewhere.

Today, sipping matcha is not just about taste — it’s about mindfulness, balance, and finding calm in a fast world.
Each whisk, each sip, is a small ceremony of presence.

“The art of slowing down begins with a single scoop of green.”
