We travel Japan by motorcycle on a quest to find the most extraordinary matcha


The Story
Several years ago, I embarked on a motorcycle journey across Japan to discover the most extraordinary matcha.
I traveled through small winding mountain passages, ancient village streets, and long stretches of unpaved roads. Eventually, I encountered artisans farmers that have been growing tea for generations.
This journey led me to three families who produce some of the best tea in all of Japan. Their tea practices, each one unique, is full of integrity, passion, and unnerving attention to detail. I am deeply honored to be working with them.
I hope you enjoy the extraordinary matcha I found on my journey, and that this story inspires you to go on your own adventure.

Artisan Farmers with limited quantities
We are honored to collaborate with three artisan Japanese farmers who have been cultivating matcha for generations. Each farmer grows small batches of tea, reflecting their dedication to quality and craftsmanship.
The limited nature of these small-scale practices, means that Motorcycle Matcha is allotted a limited amount of matcha each year. Once we sell through our finite amount, we have to wait until the next Spring harvest.
