“Matcha is a world of its own," says Catherine Jue, founder and sourcer at San Francisco–based Tekuno, a tea company focused on the extensive world of Japanese tea. “It's fascinating, complex, nuanced—there is so much to learn and appreciate.” For people who want to switch up their caffeine habit, hone their taste buds, or just set aside a few minutes for a meditative practice (that, side benefit, produces a delightful drink!), matcha is a flavorful, timeless choice."

"Packaged as loose leaf tea, the leaves immediately return to their bright green hue and fresh appearance with an exceptional aroma when brewed. The loose leaf tea selection includes a curated collection of teas with a range of Japanese flavor profiles: sweet, savory/umami, earthy, floral, bitter, and astringent."

"From a San Francisco-based business specializing in premium Japanese teas and tea utensils, this set is wrapped in custom designed paper with a sencha tea leaf pattern and ready to gift. It includes a fragrant trio of sencha teas from a 9th generation tea producer that Tekuno works with directly, plus ohigashi candies, which are traditionally served at Japanese tea ceremonies."
