🍵 How to Make Traditional Matcha Tea with KIRO M∆TCH∆

A mindful ritual in every sip.

Matcha tea isn’t just a drink — it’s a ritual rooted in centuries of Japanese tradition. Preparing matcha the traditional way invites you to slow down, be present, and connect with yourself. With KIRO M∆TCH∆ Ceremonial Grade, you're using the highest-quality matcha: vibrant, smooth, and full of life.

Ready to create the perfect cup of matcha tea at home? Let’s begin your modern tea ceremony.


🌡 Step 1: Heat the Water — Gently

Start by heating your water to 70–80°C (158–176°F).
Boiling water is a no-go — it can burn the delicate matcha and bring out bitterness.
If you don’t have a thermometer, simply boil the water and let it rest for about 1 minute.


🌿 Step 2: Sift Your Matcha

Sift 1.5–2g (about 1 teaspoon) of KIRO M∆TCH∆ Ceremonial Matcha into your matcha bowl (or chawan).
This step is key for a clump-free, velvety texture. Think of it as prepping your canvas before creating something beautiful.


🌀 Step 3: Add a Splash & Whisk

Pour in a small amount of warm water (about 30 ml) and use a bamboo whisk (chasen) to mix the matcha into a smooth paste.

Then, add the remaining water (about 60–70 ml), and whisk briskly in a W- or M-shape motion.
You’re looking for a light froth on the surface, with small, creamy bubbles. This aerates the tea and releases its natural sweetness and umami.

Take your time. This is where the magic happens.


🍃 Step 4: Sip & Be Present

Lift your bowl with both hands, bring it to your lips, and take a sip.

Notice the vibrant green color, the earthy aroma, the gentle umami, and the way it makes you feel — calm, alert, centered.

No milk. No sugar. Just pure matcha, as it’s meant to be enjoyed.


💚 Why This Matters

Unlike coffee, which gives you a quick jolt, matcha offers a smooth, sustained boost of energy — thanks to the unique combination of caffeine and L-theanine.
It supports focus, clarity, and mindfulness — making it the perfect start to your day or a grounding afternoon ritual.


Your ritual, your moment.
