    Matcha Lineup

    Ceremonial Matcha

    A distinguished drinking matcha made from first-harvest tea leaves from Nishio, Aichi, Japan. Unlike standard first-harvest ingredient matcha, it is selected for its refined umami and elegant aroma. Its polished and sophisticated character reveals the depth of matcha in its purest form. It is well suited to traditional whisked matcha, matcha beverages, matcha lattes, and premium desserts.

    Event Highlights

    VILLAGE USA was pleased to participate in a JETRO event in Arizona, where we introduced high-quality Japanese matcha and explored its potential in the U.S. market. The event received an enthusiastic response, with many attendees expressing strong interest in Japanese matcha. We also had meaningful discussions about opportunities to support the introduction and sale of matcha in Arizona, making it a valuable step toward future collaboration. We will continue creating opportunities to introduce high-quality Japanese products to people around the world.
