From the founder
Why I started chiharu.
I was born and raised in Japan. My grandmother and great-grandmother were tea ceremony teachers. For them, matcha wasn't a trend — it was a quiet, daily ritual passed down through generations.
chiharu is sourced from Kagoshima in small batches. A blend of three cultivars — Yabukita, Saemidori, Yutakamidori — each chosen for what it brings to the cup. Named for someone I love.

The science
Why matcha works.
Matcha is stone-ground whole-leaf tea — so you drink the entire leaf, not just water steeped through it. That's what makes every cup of chiharu carry more than just caffeine.
L-theanine
An amino acid that pairs with caffeine to deliver focused, calm energy — without the crash.
Catechins
Natural antioxidants found in green tea, particularly concentrated in matcha.
Caffeine
~70mg per cup — gentler than coffee, longer-lasting than tea bags.
Whole leaf
Stone-ground tencha leaves. Every compound the plant produced — yours in every cup.
The smarter way
A daily café upgrade — for less.
