Who is Kenko Tea?

Kenko Tea is a matcha brand founded in Melbourne, Australia, in 2013, sourcing leaves exclusively from sustainable farms in Nishio, Japan. It stone-grinds each batch after order placement rather than storing pre-ground powder, preserving color and aroma.

Its ceremonial grade uses first-harvest Ichibancha leaves hand-picked in April and May, while culinary grade suits cooking and baking. Both grades hold USDA organic certification, and partner farms use shading, immediate steaming, sorting, and traditional granite stone-grinding.
