Description
Sourced from the renowned Yame region in Japan, our Ceremonial Matcha offers an accessible yet high-quality introduction to the world of matcha. It is shade-grown for a rich, vibrant green colour and a smooth texture. Handpicked during the first harvest of the season (spring), this matcha bursts with flavour, nutrients and health benefits.
While ceremonial in grade, it provides a balanced flavour and smooth experience, ideal for those seeking quality without the premium price of our higher-tier Premium Ceremonial Single Cultivar Matchas.
First Harvest Quality: Our matcha is made from tender first flush leaves, which are handpicked during the peak season to ensure maximum freshness and flavour.
Vibrant Green Colour: Shade-grown to develop a deep, vibrant green colour.
Rich and Smooth Flavour: Enjoy a balanced, moderate umami taste with a delicate sweetness and a hint of gentle bitterness.
Ideal for: Daily use, traditional tea ceremonies, and indulgent matcha lattes.
Dairy-Free, Gluten-Free, GMO-Free, Sugar-Free, Vegan, and Vegetarian.
Note: For those seeking a deeper umami taste, smoother texture, and more sweetness, we recommend trying our Premium Ceremonial Single Cultivar Matcha range, which provides a more refined and nuanced flavour experience.

I am converted from coffee!!
Wow, I think any previous Matcha must have been poor quality as I never loved it. Until Maison Koko ceremonial grade first harvest that is. This has now replaced with ease my morning coffee and I am so happy. The taste is buttery smooth and so delicious. I highly recommend this product.
Hi Sally!

not much
i just received my matcha today and tried it…. i mean the color is nice but the milk easily overpowers the taste of matcha even though i went with 4g of matcha and mine is the ceremonial. one of their best.i really am disappointed. 52 dollars down the drain
Thank you for your feedback, Remaa – we truly appreciate you giving our ceremonial matcha a try.
We’re sorry to hear it didn’t meet your expectations. Our 1st Harvest Ceremonial Matcha is shade-grown and handpicked in Yame, Japan, and designed to be naturally smooth, vibrant, and low in bitterness – a hallmark of higher-quality matcha. That said, non-bitter matcha can sometimes feel milder in milk-based drinks, especially if you're used to the sharper taste of more astringent or lower-grade matcha.
This is actually a common experience when transitioning to higher-quality ceremonial matcha, which is traditionally made for usucha (thin tea) and appreciated for its delicate, clean finish. If you're looking for a bolder matcha taste in lattes, we recommend using more.
We’d also love to hear how you're preparing it, and we’d be more than happy to guide you and help you get the most out of your matcha.

The best matcha I’ve come across
You pay for what you get at Maison Koko. If you want the cheaper stuff that’s all well and good but if you want the premo stuff and know your matchas then this place gives you the variety to choose. I love my ceremonial matcha! Just wish I didn’t go through it so fast 🤣🤣
Your review made us smile! 😄 We totally understand that 'going through ceremonial matcha too quickly' feeling - it's a sign of a true matcha lover!
We offer various grades and cultivars for different matcha journeys. From our premium Saemidori to Okumidori, each has its own special character.
Thanks for appreciating the quality difference. Please let us know if you need any assistance or recommendations! ✨

What a lovely review, Wendy! Your matcha preparation with A2 milk and agave syrup sounds absolutely perfect! We're thrilled you're enjoying the vibrant green colour and smooth, non-bitter taste - it's a testament to our high-quality, carefully selected matcha leaves. Thank you for sharing your perfect matcha recipe with our community!

Maison Koko was born from fashion designer Gina Kim’s passion for authentic matcha, sparked during a rainy afternoon in a Parisian café and fulfilled in Japan, where she immersed herself in matcha cultivation traditions and found the finest farms for her craft. Maison Koko now offers an exceptional, authentic matcha experience, embodying mindfulness, wellness, and a deep connection to true Japanese heritage.
