Matcha
Matcha is more than a tea—it’s a powerhouse of wellness. Packed with antioxidants, particularly catechins, matcha supports your body’s defenses and promotes overall health. Its natural caffeine provides a clean, sustained energy boost without the jitters, while L-theanine enhances focus and promotes calmness. From supporting metabolism and detoxification to boosting your mood, matcha offers benefits that go beyond the cup.
At Raku, we believe in delivering matcha that’s as pure as its purpose. Our matcha is consciously sourced from the first harvest of Uji’s finest tea leaves, ensuring vibrant flavor, rich nutrients, and no compromise on quality. By choosing, we not only care for your health but also protect the environment, honoring sustainable farming practices.

From Farm to Cup
Your matcha's journey begins in Japan’s Uji tea fields, where the finest tea leaves are harvested and carefully picked. These leaves are stone-ground into a silky powder in an Uji based facility with nearly two centuries of tea-making expertise. Our matcha is a global favorite, enjoyed in cafes, homes, and restaurants across Japan and beyond.
About Our Bowl Collection
Our bowls are made in Kyoto by T. Nishikawa & Co., Inc., a century-old maker of Kiyomizu Ware. Each piece is hand-formed, hand-glazed, and hand-painted, using traditional techniques passed down through generations.
The layered glazes create keshiki—a landscape of colour inspired by Kyoto’s seasons—making every bowl completely unique.
Crafted in small batches and rooted in Kyoto’s ceramic heritage, these bowls bring authentic Japanese artistry to your matcha ritual.
