Horai is T2's premium ceremonial-grade matcha, sourced from the Kagoshima region of Japan. Young tencha leaves shaded for three to four weeks, then deveined and ground into a fine, vibrant green powder. Softer, sweeter, more umami-forward than our everyday matcha. JAS (Japanese Agricultural Standard) certified organic. What's in the tin matches what's on the tin.

Deep umami at the front. Gentle sweetness through the middle. Almost no astringency on the close. Whisks up an intense, vibrant green. Buttery mouthfeel, long sweet finish. The kind of matcha you drink slowly, in a quiet kitchen, for the cup itself.

Whisk 1/2 tsp (around 2 g) into 150 ml water at 80°C / 176°F with a chasen (bamboo whisk) until a fine foam forms. This is usucha (thin tea), the everyday way to drink ceremonial matcha. For the richer ceremonial variant, halve the water and double the matcha - that's koicha (thick tea), the traditional bowl preparation. Perfect on its own or with a dash of milk - also beautiful as a latte.

From fruits to spices, tea leaves to herb bushes, 100% of our tea is sustainably sourced.

Steven ★★★★★

The vibrant green of this powder is stunning, and it dissolves with almost no clumps — just a beautiful, smooth cup every time. The grassy, slightly sweet flavor is noticeably more refined than standard matcha I've tried.

Nicholas ★★★★★

I've tried several matcha brands over the years, but the smooth, almost creamy texture of this ceremonial-grade powder is noticeably superior in my morning lattes. The fine grind dissolves completely with just a quick whisk, leaving no bitter aftertaste.

Alexander ★★★★★

The vibrant green color alone tells you this is high-quality matcha, and it whisks up smoothly with almost no clumps. I've noticed the flavor is noticeably smoother and less bitter than my usual everyday matcha, making it perfect for a morning ritual. It's a treat I look forward to each day.
