Uji Matcha Tea

Uji Matcha Tea Authentic Uji Matcha Tea & Accessories 🍵 Worldwide Shipping 📮 Premium Health Japan was founded by Luke Alcock, an Australian who has lived in Japan since 2017.

Previously a personal trainer and boxing coach in Melbourne, Luke was inspired to create PHJ by his mum, who sadly lost her battle with breast cancer in 2021. Luke and his mum spent years researching diet & lifestyle options that could help fight cancer. Green tea was one of the first focal points at the beginning of the journey. This ended up being the impetus for Luke's venture into matcha. Livi

ng in Japan has enabled Luke to establish partnerships with Japanese matcha experts. "From our supplier in Uji, Kyoto, that has been making some of Japan's best matcha for over 270 years, to our Tea Master and consultant Kimiko; we hope you'll enjoy our matcha as much as we do!" - Luke

The remarkable, dark green pigmentation visible in these leaves is a direct result of our meticulous shading process.

By intentionally limiting sunlight in the weeks prior to picking, we encourage the plant to overproduce chlorophyll and L-theanine, ensuring a smooth, rich finish with zero bitterness.

Ichibancha: The first tea of the year.

For just a few fleeting weeks, the fields of Uji are bustling with the careful, quiet work of the spring harvest. Grown under shade to maximize sweetness and carefully hand-picked, these tender leaves are the heart and soul of true artisanal matcha.

Ever wonder why premium matcha is sweet and savory, rather than bitter? The secret is Ichibancha - the first tea harvest of the year.

During a narrow window from late April to mid-May, tea plants in Uji push all their winter-stored nutrients into the very first, delicate spring leaves. This specific timing creates the perfect chemical profile:

🌱 Peak L-Theanine: This amino acid gives the tea its signature sweet, umami-rich flavor and provides calm, focused energy.
🌱 Maximum Chlorophyll: Careful shading before the first harvest forces the leaves to produce extra chlorophyll, resulting in that vibrant emerald-green color.

Leaves from later harvests naturally lose this sweetness and become more astringent. When it comes to premium matcha, timing is everything.

The true measure of quality is time.

Authentic Uji matcha requires an uncompromising commitment to tradition. Our stone mills yield just 40 grams of matcha per hour—a deliberate, 25-hour process required to produce a single kilogram.

This meticulous technique prevents friction heat, protecting the delicate umami profile, vibrant color, and nutritional integrity of the leaves.
