Handcrafted in Uji since the 1800s, Kumo embodies generations of matcha mastery—shaded, handpicked, and stone-ground for the finest flavor and texture

Kumo Matcha: A Legacy of Artisanal Excellence

Since the early 1800s, a devoted family in Kyoto’s Uji region has been cultivating exceptional matcha. This family-run tea garden has passed down the art of tea cultivation through the generations, beginning with the establishment of their farm nearly two centuries ago. Throughout the years, they have perfected their techniques, consistently winning prestigious competitions and paying homage to their rich heritage.

“Kumo,” meaning “cloud,” is a super supreme ceremonial grade matcha that encapsulates the essence of this family’s dedication to tea. The tea leaves for Kumo are carefully shaded for more than four weeks and handpicked to ensure the highest quality. The matcha is finely ground using a traditional stone mill, preserving its delicate flavor and texture.

Antioxidant-rich and packed with L-Theanine for immunity, stress relief, and enhanced focus

Health Benefits of Kumo Matcha

Kumo Matcha is rich in antioxidants, particularly catechins like EGCG, which help fight free radicals and promote overall health. These antioxidants support immune function and may reduce the risk of chronic diseases. Additionally, Kumo contains L-Theanine, an amino acid that promotes a calm, focused state of mind. L-Theanine enhances alpha brain wave activity, which can help reduce stress and improve concentration, making Kumo not only a delicious but also a beneficial choice for both relaxation and mental clarity.
