Before harvesting, the tea bushes are grown under special shading covers. This increases the chlorophyll and L-theanine content of the leaves and gives them their rich green colour.CAREFULLY PRODUCED IN JAPANImmediately after harvesting, the leaves are gently steamed, dried and, once separated from the stems, ground into a fine powder. The entire matcha production process in Uji is highly time-consuming, and every batch of leaves is carefully inspected.

The generous rainfall, sunny hills and naturally forming mists create ideal conditions for growing green tea, while helping to protect the delicate tea leaves from frost.The tea bushes used to produce Moya Matcha are carefully cultivated on small, family-run tea farms where no pesticides are used.FRESHNESS PRESERVEDAfter harvesting, the leaves are dried and ground into a fine powder locally in Japan. The matcha is then shipped to Europe in small batches to ensure maximum freshness.
