For a special occasion!

I savored it back home after leaving the maternity ward, a smooth, sweet matcha with a salty seaweed flavour, almost marine. You can taste the delicacy of the roasting process, with almost no bitterness.

Excellent

Excellent matcha, with a light roasted flavor and nutty notes that remind me a lot of coffee. No bitterness, regardless of the matcha dosage, no sea flavor, a delicious acidity that spreads throughout the mouth and acts on the taste buds at different times, lasting a long time.

This matcha embodies the boldness and resilience of Takeshi-san, who overcame immense challenges to produce an extraordinary matcha tea. Its rarity, son expertise artisan and its character luxurious justify its price and make it a true culinary journey.

Presented in a black and gold box, this matcha affirms its prestigious character at first glance. Its smooth texture and jade green colour, intensely luminous, reveal the high standards that guided every stage of its creation: a setting worthy of its nobility.

  • Certified organic
  • Delicate roasted flavor with notes of white chocolate
  • Rich in antioxidants, which help combat oxidative stress, L-theanine, which promotes better focus and improves mood, and theine, flavonoids, and quinic acid, which improve and support cognitive function
  • Premium packaging

la feuille de thé

  • Manual Selection : Only the most perfect tea leaves are selected, one by one, to guarantee an exceptional tea.
  • Meticulous Roasting : The tea leaves are heated on a table specially designed for this process. Every 10 minutes, the tea is tasted to compare its flavours and stop the roasting at the exact moment when all its notes are revealed.
  • Perfect preservation : Thanks to a moisture content reduced to 3%, well below the usual standards, this matcha retains its freshness and aromas for longer.       

A treasure trove of craftsmanship, signed Takeshi-san

At the crossroads of ancient tradition and innovation, Legendary HINATA Matcha is a work of art created by Takeshi-san, a master artisan of taste, whose hands have sculpted each step to enhance the essence of matcha. Legendary HINATA matcha is a sweet and umami composition containing 90% Okumidori and 10% Samidori cultivars. This composition provides perfect harmony for unparalleled roundness and length on the palate.

In the world of tea, some people grow tea leaves. Takeshi-san cultivates emotions. A child of the Nishio hills, he grew up in a home where respect for the land was a daily ritual. But his genius lies elsewhere: in his ability to capture the perfect balance between intensity, sweetness, and length on the palate. What Takeshi-san does cannot be imitated by any industrial process. Each bundle is tasted, adjusted, and worked on until it reaches an almost obsessive level of precision. This is how he has earned his title ofartisan of taste, a title that evokes both his respect for tradition and his ambition to push its boundaries.

In the Miyazaki region, a rich, sunny terroir nicknamed “Cha-Usu-Baru”, Takeshi-san, a 3rd-generation master artisan, has always been guided by a single quest: to create a tea capable of touching people.

It all starts with a question
When Takeshi-san was young, he tasted a cup of tea that deeply affected him. It was a tea with a richness of flavour and a depth that he never forgot. “How can I produce an even better tea?”, he would ask himself. This quest for perfection became his driving force.

A big decision
At the time, tea production in Japan was facing challenges: competition from Chinese teas, mass-produced at lower cost, and falling sales prices. Producing quality tea seemed like a losing battle.

Rather than giving up, Takeshi-san made a bold choice: to abandon the production of sencha, a traditional tea that is popular, and focus on matcha tea, for which demand was skyrocketing.

The transition to organic: a colossal challenge
Shortly after he started producing matcha, a technical incident nearly ruined his efforts. Harmful substances from the machines were detected in his tea. His entire harvest was returned, and he had to suspend his business. This was a turning point: a customer suggested that he produce organic matcha. With no real alternative, Takeshi-san decided to take up organic farming, even though he had neither the experience nor the means to buy organic fertilizers. The beginning was disastrous. Insects invaded his plantations, the leaves fell, and his tea plants seemed doomed. He had hit rock bottom.

The turning point
One day, Takeshi-san realised that the problem came from the soil. Drawing on the advice of an expert nicknamed "the God of soil", he adopted ancient and natural farming techniques, such as working in harmony with the cycles of the moon.

The results were spectacular: in a short time, his plantations regained their vitality. The tea plants, once sickly, now produced robust and aromatic leaves.

The long-awaited success

After four years of intense effort, Takeshi-san finally rediscovered the special flavor he had been searching for since he started out. This matcha, with its deep and balanced aromas, was presented at the G7 summit and has won two medals (AVPA Gold 2023 and Silver 2024).

Takeshi san created a comic strip illustrating his journey.

From the very first sip, the Matcha HINATA Legendary Organic reveals a unique aromatic profile.

  • A delicate roasted flavor : an enveloping sweetness, balanced by a slight toasted intensity reminiscent of the warmth of a wood fire.
  • Delicate notes of white chocolate, both subtle and captivating, bring an incomparable depth of flavor.
  • Exceptional length on the palate : each sip leaves a velvety sensation, with aromas that evolve and linger.

Although delicious when prepared traditionally, this matcha reveals its full intensity when matcha-expresso, a concentrated version that magnifies its complex flavours and smooth texture.

L'aventure Kumiko Matcha

Kumiko, qui signifie « Ă©ternellement belle », symbolise cette quĂȘte d'harmonie et de prĂ©sence. Chaque annĂ©e, je visite nos fermiers partenaires au Japon, tissant des liens directs avec ceux qui cultivent ce trĂ©sor vert avec passion et respect.
