For almost two centuries, Ujido has been dedicated to the cultivation of premium Japanese matcha. We pride ourselves on adhering to timeless traditions while forging partnerships in prime locations. Our meticulously hand-picked tea leaves flourish in the serene shade of Uji's picturesque hills, where the journey of matcha began.

Family-Grown Excellence

At Ujido, we select only the finest tea leaves, carefully nurtured and hand-harvested in Kyoto, the birthplace of matcha.

Explore a Variety of Flavors

Our products are naturally sweetened with Stevia, making them suitable for diabetics, individuals following a keto diet, and those mindful of their sugar intake. This ensures that everyone can enjoy the delightful taste of our matcha without concern.

Versatile Formulations for Skin and More

Ujido’s matcha is incredibly versatile, extending beyond the delicious beverage itself. It can be seamlessly integrated into a wide array of recipes, such as hot chocolate, lattes, dry rubs, and even face masks!

Is Matcha Gluten-Free?

Absolutely. Our matcha consists purely of stone-ground tea leaves and is free from gluten-containing ingredients such as wheat.

Storage Recommendations for Optimal Freshness

Once you’ve opened your matcha, we recommend storing it in the refrigerator and sealing it tightly to prevent exposure to air. This helps maintain its freshness.

Caffeine Content Information

In each 2g serving of our matcha, you’ll find 44mg of caffeine, providing a gentle energy boost without the jitters.

A Rich Family Heritage in Tea

Our story begins in 1832 when a humble tea farmer, Tune-emon Takizo, ventured to establish a tea business in Uji, Kyoto, the cradle of our distinctive Japanese tea production methods. For generations, our family has upheld a commitment to producing exceptional green tea, carrying forward the legacy that began with our founder.

In 1952, we proudly opened our retail shop in Uji, Kyoto, which continues to operate today. It brings us immense joy to uphold this ancient tradition as part of our family heritage. After nearly two centuries, we remain devoted to sharing the authentic experience of matcha tea with the world.

A Culinary Gem for Drinking and Cooking

Culinary-grade matcha is not just for sipping; it also excels in baking, cooking, and garnishing dishes. The possibilities are limitless, whether enhancing the flavor of desserts or enriching savory meals.

Enhancing Focus and Clarity

Rich in L-Theanine, our matcha promotes improved focus and clear thinking. It acts as a natural relaxant, reducing both physiological and psychological stress while refreshing the body.

Impressive Antioxidant Profile

Ujido matcha boasts an astonishing ORAC score of 1,573, providing 130 times the antioxidants found in brewed green tea. To put this into perspective, our matcha far surpasses the antioxidant content of many superfoods: Gojiberries (253), Dark Chocolate (227), Pomegranate (105), Wild Blueberries (93), Acai Berries (60), and Broccoli (31).

In summary, Ujido is not just a matcha producer but a custodian of heritage, quality, and wellness, celebrating the beauty of this extraordinary tea for generations and for all to enjoy.
