Shade-Grown Chinese Tencha Green Tea Leaves Premium Raw Material for Authentic Matcha Grinding

Our Chinese tencha is cultivated with traditional shade-grown techniques, inheriting classic tea-making craftsmanship. Tea bushes are shaded for 20 to 30 days pre-harvest, which elevates L-theanine and chlorophyll, creating a vivid emerald look and rich umami taste. Fresh tender leaves are steamed instantly to stop oxidation, then air-dried and thoroughly trimmed to remove stems and veins. Free from chemicals and additives, this pure tencha has mild sweetness and almost no bitterness. Loaded with EGCG antioxidants and natural nutrients, it delivers steady energy and calm focus. Brew it directly as a fine green tea, or grind it into fresh matcha for beverages, baking and daily tea rituals.
