Matcha produced by Matcha Yu Tea
Matcha Yu Tea offers two distinct matcha grades, each carefully selected to meet different brewing preferences and occasions. The company mills their matcha fresh to order, ensuring optimal flavor and nutritional value for customers.
Product Range
Everyday Matcha represents their economical yet high-quality option, specifically designed for daily consumption and perfect for creating matcha (powdered green tea) lattes. This grade provides consistent quality while remaining accessible for regular use.
Premium Ceremonial Grade Matcha showcases their finest offering, crafted from organic, first harvest leaves known as ichibancha (first tea). This premium grade delivers exceptional color, aroma, and a remarkably smooth finish that makes it ideal for traditional Japanese tea ceremonies.
Quality Standards
The ceremonial grade matcha utilizes leaves from the first harvest, which typically occurs between late April and mid-May. These young, tender leaves provide the vibrant color and rich nutrient profile that distinguishes high-quality matcha. The traditional hand-picking method, known as tezumi (hand picking), ensures only the finest leaves are selected while avoiding any bruising or damage that machine harvesting might cause.
Each product reflects Matcha Yu Tea’s commitment to bringing authentic Japanese matcha traditions to Australian consumers, with careful attention to traditional harvesting techniques that preserve the delicate characteristics prized in ceremonial preparations.

History of Matcha Yu Tea
From Japan to Australia: A Matcha Journey
Erin Lindwall‘s journey with matcha began over 10 years ago when her fascination with Japanese culture ignited in her youth. After living in Japan and returning to Australia, she discovered that the matcha available locally didn’t match the authentic taste she had experienced abroad.
This realization led to the creation of Matcha Yu Tea approximately 8 years ago, based in Victoria, Australia. The company was founded with a clear mission: to directly source high-quality, delicious-tasting fresh matcha and share its health benefits with Australian consumers.
Sourcing Excellence from Kyushu
Matcha Yu Tea proudly sources its matcha from Kyushu, Japan, milling it fresh to order. The company focuses on ichibancha (first harvest) leaves, which are typically harvested between late April and mid-May. These young, tender leaves are considered the highest quality, boasting vibrant color and rich nutrient profiles.
The company offers two primary grades: Everyday Matcha for daily consumption and matcha lattes, and Premium Ceremonial Grade Matcha made from organic, first harvest leaves with exceptional color, aroma, and smooth finish ideal for traditional tea ceremonies.
Commitment to Sustainability
Beyond quality, Matcha Yu Tea demonstrates environmental consciousness through its use of 100% home compostable packaging. The company acknowledges the Traditional Owners of the land, the Wurundjeri Woi Wurrung and Bunurong peoples of the Kulin Nation, showing respect for indigenous heritage.
Today, Matcha Yu Tea continues to operate from Melbourne, Australia, maintaining its commitment to bringing authentic Japanese matcha culture to Australian consumers while focusing on sustainability and traditional harvesting methods.
