OUR MATCHA

Premium Organic Matcha from Japan

Dreamatcha's matcha is sourced from the pristine hills of southern Japan, where tea cultivation is a centuries-old tradition. Our organic matcha comes from family farms in Kyoto and Kagoshima, regions celebrated for their fertile volcanic soil, ideal climate, and rich tea culture. The tea leaves are carefully shade-grown to enhance chlorophyll and L-theanine levels, hand-picked, gently steamed, dried, and slowly stone-ground into an ultra-fine powder. This meticulous process preserves the vibrant color, delicate flavor, and natural nutrients of the matcha, delivering an authentic Japanese matcha experience in every cup.

Why Matcha is Good for You – Organic Japanese Matcha

Key Features of Our Organic Matcha

Antioxidants

Our premium organic matcha is naturally rich in EGCG (epigallocatechin gallate), a powerful antioxidant found in green tea. EGCG supports overall health, helps protect cells from oxidative stress, and contributes to your daily wellness routine.

Focus & Mood Support

Dreamatcha's organic matcha contains L-theanine, a natural amino acid that promotes calmness and balances the nervous system. L-theanine helps support mental clarity, focus, and mood by gently boosting dopamine and serotonin levels.

Sustained Energy & Gentle Alertness

Matcha contains less caffeine than coffee - approx. 30–70 mg per cup vs. coffee has 80-120mg per cup but its effect is smoother and longer-lasting.


Unlike coffee, matcha provides a slow-release source of caffeine combined with L-theanine, giving you sustained energy without jitters or crashes. Perfect for supporting productivity, study sessions, or mindful moments throughout the day.

Why Matcha’s EGCG and L-Theanine Support Your Wellness

  • EGCG

    EGCG (epigallocatechin gallate) is a powerful antioxidant naturally found in our organic matcha. It supports overall wellness in multiple ways:

    • Glowing Skin: Helps fight inflammation and protect collagen for healthier, radiant skin.
    • Boosted Metabolism: Gently supports fat oxidation during physical activity.
    • Heart Health: Supports healthy cholesterol levels and blood flow.
    • Immune Support: Helps balance the immune system by modulating immune responses.

  • L-theanine

    L-theanine is a naturally occurring amino acid found in high-quality Japanese matcha. It supports both mental calm and focused energy in a gentle, balanced way:

    • Calms the Nervous System: Increases alpha brain waves, which are associated with a calm yet alert mental state, similar to meditation.
    • Reduces Stress: Helps lower stress hormones such as cortisol, supporting emotional balance.
    • Boosts Feel-Good Neurotransmitters: Supports the production of GABA, serotonin, and dopamine, helping improve mood and mental clarity.
    • Supports Nervous System Balance: Helps balance the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems, allowing the body to shift from “fight or flight” into a more relaxed state.
    • Prevents Caffeine Crashes: Slows the absorption of caffeine, providing smooth, long-lasting energy without jitters or heart palpitations.

    The unique combination of L-theanine and caffeine in matcha creates calm focus and sustained energy - perfect for mindful moments and everyday productivity.

How Matcha Is Grown, Graded, and Enjoyed

Matcha is more than just green tea - it is a centuries-old craft rooted in Japanese tea culture. From carefully shade-grown tea plants to traditional stone-grinding, every step of the process affects matcha’s color, flavor, and wellness benefits. Understanding how matcha is grown, graded, and enjoyed helps you choose high-quality matcha and turn each cup into a mindful, nourishing ritual.

how matcha is grown

High-quality matcha is grown with care and patience. Tea plants are shade-grown for several weeks before harvest, increasing chlorophyll and L-theanine levels. The leaves are then hand-picked, steamed, dried, and stone-ground into a fine powder. This traditional process preserves matcha’s vibrant color, smooth taste, and powerful nutrients.

High-Quality vs. Low-Quality Matcha: What’s the Difference?

Not all matcha is the same. The quality of matcha depends on its origin, growing conditions, harvest time, and how it is processed. High-quality matcha is made from young, shade-grown tea leaves that are carefully hand-picked, gently processed, and slowly stone-ground. This traditional method preserves matcha’s vibrant green color, smooth flavor, and high levels of antioxidants such as EGCG, as well as calming L-theanine.

Lower-quality or cheaper matcha is often made from older leaves, grown with less care and processed more quickly using industrial methods. This results in a duller color, more bitterness, and significantly lower levels of antioxidants and beneficial compounds. Because high-quality matcha requires more time, skill, and labor to produce - from shading the plants to slow stone-grinding - it naturally comes at a higher price.

Choosing organic, high-quality Japanese matcha means better taste, higher nutritional value, and a more balanced, gentle effect on the body and mind.
