First of all, thank you so much for trying our matcha! When I started drinking matcha 5 years ago it changed my life. The relaxed energy, focus, improved stomach issues and overall feeling of well-being was a stark difference to the damage coffee was doing to my mind and body. Important meetings now don’t feel like I’m on stage in front of thousands of people, I can golf without my hands shaking violently over a 3 foot putt, no more crashes and mood swings throughout the day, and I sleep so much better at night.
So why start a matcha company? Selfishly, I get to build a brand with an amazing, health focused community, share quality matcha that I'm extremely proud of, support the farmers we love in Japan, and get high off my own supply...this is a dream come true for me and I can’t wait to share it with the world. We went to Japan and tested hundreds of varietals until we found the most vibrant, smooth, and flavorful matcha in the mountains of Shizuoka, Japan. We work directly with the farmers which is why we’re able to offer such premium matcha for under $1/serving. 98% of the matcha available in the US is bottom of the barrel quality and we're looking to change that.
My promise is to offer you the freshest first-harvest, ultra-premium ceremonial grade matcha, at a great price, with excellent customer service, and have fun doing it. It’s been incredibly rewarding to see the positive feedback thus far, so please reach out to us anytime on Instagram (@element.matcha) or hello@elementmatcha.com. We can help you with subscription orders, general questions, or give bad relationship advice :)
Thanks again for joining the Element community and I hope you love your matcha as much as we do!
