Anatae is a French matcha brand founded in 2019 that sources organic tea directly from three Japanese prefectures: Nishio, Kagoshima, Shizuoka. Its matcha range is purpose-built—from ceremonial to culinary—with blends tailored to each use.
The ceremonial grade relies on ichibancha leaves shaded for three weeks with black sheets—tana shading—and stone-ground to a fine 10‑micron powder after steaming and drying. Anatae works with multi‑generational farmers like Kana’s family in Nishio; their pesticide‑free tencha helped the brand earn the Meilleur Produit BIO award.
Anatae Serenity Selection: Japanese Matcha and Incense Kit combines 30 g of organic ceremonial matcha, a bamboo chasen whisk, and 48 Japanese incense sticks developed with French brand Thelma Paris. The set supports traditional water-based matcha preparation, matcha lattes, no-bake pastry, and quiet activities such as reading, yoga, Pilates, or meditation.
The matcha contains 100% organic green tea matcha powder and is described as sweet, vegetal, fresh, and free from bitterness. It is gluten-free and contains no allergens. This matcha received the Meilleur Produit BIO 2022 award.
The included matcha comes from Nishio in Aichi, Japan. It uses the Yabukita cultivar and is made from a spring ichibancha, meaning the first harvest of the year. Harvesting and production are completed manually.
These details make the set useful for buyers seeking a named Japanese origin, cultivar, and harvest season rather than a matcha with unspecified sourcing. The 30 g format suits approximately 30 servings, while the included whisk provides the tool needed to prepare the powder with water or milk.
Place one level teaspoon, or about 1 g, of matcha in a bowl. Add a small amount of water at no more than 75°C (167°F), then whisk with the chasen for about 20 seconds. Drink it with additional water or add milk for a matcha latte.
Keep the matcha container tightly closed in a cool, dry place. These storage conditions are given for maintaining its taste for up to three months after opening. Rinse the chasen with cold water after use, then leave it to air-dry with the tines facing upward.
Place one incense stick in an incense holder. If no holder is available, fill a glass with rice or lentils and stand the stick securely inside. Light the tip carefully with a match, wait several seconds, then blow out any remaining flame. Keep some distance from the stick and avoid breathing the smoke directly, even though the incense is described as low-smoke.
Always extinguish incense fully to reduce burn and fire risk. The matcha and incense format suits buyers who want both tea preparation equipment and Japanese incense in one gift-ready selection.
Set includes 30 g of organic ceremonial matcha, one bamboo chasen whisk, and 48 Japanese incense sticks. Incense was created with French brand Thelma Paris and comes in a box made in France.
