Our tea bags are composed of Soilon which is a Polylactic acid (PLA)-based material that is biodegradable, and the seams are heat-sealed rather than sealed with plastic in order to maintain the integrity and safety of their makeup.

ABOUT GREEN TEA
Green tea is where it all started! With over 1,000 years of history, this is the world’s first form of Camellia sinensis leaves brewed in water. Tea farmers have created hundreds of green tea styles in that time, refining their techniques over the centuries. These crisp and delicate brews remain the most popular teas in China and Japan.
Such longevity and diversity means that green tea flavors can range from bright and grassy to soft and buttery. Some styles feature a delicate liquor while others are rich and brothy. These brews are generally known for a distinctive vegetal character that’s as close as you can get to the taste of a fresh leaf plucked off a tea plant. Since they’re processed before the leaves can oxidize, green teas are especially high in antioxidants and polyphenols. Steep these traditional handmade teas for a grounding moment of calm.
ABOUT JAPANESE GREEN TEA
Japanese green tea is a category all its own. Unlike most green styles, these teas are steamed during processing to coax fresh marine flavors from the leaf. They have a unique umami note and a balanced brothy character.
Sencha is Japan’s most popular green tea, made from high quality early spring leaves. Affordable, easy drinking banchas like hojicha and genmaicha are made with more mature leaves later in the season, and premium green teas like matcha and gyokuro are shaded before harvest to increase their sweetness and umami. Which one will be your favorite? You may just have to try them all.

Koyamaen has strict quality control systems in place that target a wide variety of issues that can affect the quality, taste, and characteristics of their tea: Teas are kept fresh using a unique drying system that reduces moisture in the leaf to an incredibly low level which is verified by an infrared optical moisture meter. Since a vibrant color is essential to the matcha experience, a colorimeter is utilized to ensure that the matcha has a naturally vibrant hue. Finally, the particle size of the matcha is strictly controlled which ensures each particle is fine enough to deliver an easy-to-blend, smooth-tasting beverage.
