Our Story

Antixor Matcha began with one bowl of first-harvest matcha in Uji, and the wish to share that taste with everyone at home.

Our Story

From Uji's Tea Fields
to Your Morning Cup

Antixor Matcha started in 2017, when our founder Emi Tanaka came home from Uji with a tin of first-harvest matcha from a small family farm and could not find anything like it in New York. We still buy from that farm today: the Nakamura family, fourth-generation growers who shade their tea for three weeks before the May harvest and grind it on granite stone mills, 40 grams an hour.

We import in small batches, so every tin reaches you within weeks of milling rather than months, and we only sell matcha we drink ourselves every day.

The Art of Matcha

Four Slow Steps to Every Tin

From ancient traditions to modern wellness: the way our matcha is made has hardly changed in four hundred years.

  1. 01Shade-Grown

    For 21 to 28 days before harvest the bushes are covered, which deepens the green and sweetens the leaf.

  2. 02Hand-Picked

    Only the youngest first-flush leaves are picked in early May, steamed within hours and dried as tencha.

  3. 03Stone-Milled

    Granite mills turn slowly to keep the powder cool: one mill makes about 40 g an hour.

  4. 04Sealed Fresh

    Nitrogen-flushed tins, packed in small batches and shipped within weeks of milling.

Sustainability

Grown With Care
for the Land

Good matcha starts with healthy soil. Our partner farms grow without synthetic pesticides, return tea prunings to the fields as mulch and leave wild hedges between the rows for pollinators.

  • JAS-certified organic fields for our Organic Matcha Powder
  • Direct trade: we pay our growers 30% above the Uji auction price
  • Recyclable steel tins and plastic-free, compostable packing
  • Carbon-neutral shipping on every order
