Daily Matcha NZ

Genesis of a Green Dream

Daily Matcha NZ emerged around 2024 in Auckland, riding New Zealand’s burgeoning wellness wave. The founders recognized a growing demand among Kiwis for accessible, high-grade matcha that fits seamlessly into modern, health-conscious lifestyles. They weren’t just selling tea – they were introducing a ritual, a moment of zen in a hectic world.

The Uji Connection

The brand proudly sources from family-run tea farms in Japan, with strong connections to Uji in Kyoto Prefecture. Uji isn’t just a region – it’s the undisputed heartland of matcha production, where centuries of expertise and ideal climate conditions create the perfect environment for premium tea cultivation. These aren’t corporate farms but family legacies, where traditional techniques pass from generation to generation.

Ceremonial Grade Excellence

Daily Matcha NZ’s commitment to ceremonial grade organic matcha represents the highest tier of quality. Made exclusively from the youngest, most tender leaves of the first harvest (Ichibancha), their matcha is stone-ground to an incredibly fine powder of 5-10 microns. This meticulous process unlocks the full flavor potential, creating that vibrant emerald color and naturally sweet, umami-rich taste with minimal bitterness.

Sustainable Practices

The brand emphasizes eco-friendly harvesting methods, including organic fertilizers, water-wise irrigation practices, and traditional shading techniques using straw or reed screens. These time-honored methods coax the leaves to produce more chlorophyll, resulting in that signature vibrant green hue and rich flavor profile that customers consistently praise for its smooth, creamy texture.
