Our Process:
1
Source the Finest Tea
River & Stone works closely with the best farmers in Japan's most prized tea-growing regions. We take great care to work with farmers with exacting standards, which means we focus on small, family operations that grow their tea without any artificial fertilizers or pesticides.
2
Prepare the Tencha
We hold all of our tencha in cold storage here in Minnesota. When we need to use it, we carefully remove the stems and veins of the leaves, sifting them several times to ensure that only pure leaf material goes into our mill.
3
Mill-To-Order
We mill every tin of matcha to-order to maximize freshness. The mill only runs at about 40 grams per hour, making for a very laborious process. It is well worth it, as milling fresh matcha slowly ensures a very fine particle size and a greater range of aromatics in the finished tea.
4
Pass it along
We want you to experience the most authentic matcha possible, with an emphasis on craft that can only be achieved with fresh milling and superb tencha. Unlike some other teas that are made to age, our matcha is best consumed while it's fresh! Japanese tea culture is very appreciative of nature's ephemerality, and enjoying matcha like this is the ultimate expression of that outlook.
