Hello to all matcha lovers (and those about to become ones)!

This is the Arigato Matcha team, and we're thrilled to share a bit of our story with you. Because behind every cup of our matcha, there's much more than just a green powder: there's true passion, incredible encounters, and a journey that led us to the heart of Japan.

Like many of you, our story with matcha began quite simply. For years, we drank "low-quality" matcha without really knowing what we were missing. Then, one day, revelation struck! We tasted a REAL matcha, one that transports you, with incomparable depth, sweetness, and umami. It was love at first sight, and very quickly, we wanted to understand where this magic came from. That's how we found ourselves in Uji, near Kyoto, a mythical place where tea is a religion, a tradition passed down from generation to generation.There, we had the incredible opportunity to meet a family of producers. Imagine: they've been cultivating tea since the Edo period! That's incredible, isn't it? Centuries of savoir-faire, precise gestures, respect for the land. We were amazed by their devotion and their way of working, far from large industrial productions. And that's where the idea for Arigato Matcha was born: to share this discovery, this exceptional matcha, with all of you, from our base in Montreal.
