Tencha" by Tsujiki

Each bud is carefully picked by hand and immediately processed into tencha while maintaining its freshness. The finished Tencha is then carefully selected and sorted to produce the highest quality Tencha, which is then stone ground to produce the highest quality Matcha.

Matcha" by Tsujiki

The key to the exquisite flavor of Tencha and Matcha is the accumulation of amino acids in the sprouts. Shading is applied in stages from the sprouting stage, with light shading up to 95%, which is higher than the 85% shading rate for general cultivation, to retain the flavor components in the sprouts.
