Henrietta brought matcha to the UK before virtually anyone here knew what it was. Oh, how times have changed - now matcha is all the craze.

Join us for our newest Masterclass, where we will cut through the noise and hype of matcha to discover its delicious joys and transformative rituals.

So much more than a latte, our masterclass will dive into different preparations and types. We'll discuss our four types of matcha, ranging from our top-grade (ceremonial) Matcha to GenMatcha, Toasted Matcha (crafted from the unique roasted green tea known as hojicha), and one specifically selected for lattes. Plus, we'll explore the essential kit you need to make the perfect matcha.

Henrietta will explore and share her stories of visiting the farms (and singing karaoke), and why it's so important to only drink the highest quality matcha, with some surprising information, insights, and (of course) infused adventures. The perfect gift for a friend who loves matcha but needs a little guidance on just how simple it can be to do at home.

Pick up a bundle with every matcha featured in the tasting and get a ticket to this masterclass FREE.

Bundle contents - 1 x 25g Japanese Hojicha Toasted Matcha, 1 x 25g Japanese GenMatcha, 1 x 25g Japanese Ceremonial Latte Matcha, 1 x 25g Japanese Ceremonial Matcha. You can choose to have just bags or storage tins as well if you need them.

The history lesson on how matcha first landed in the UK was fascinating, and Henrietta really cuts through the hype to explain the good stuff. I came away actually knowing how to spot a quality ceremonial grade versus the grocery store junk.

Sebastian ★★★★★

I’d been drinking supermarket matcha for years and this class completely reset my standards—Henrietta’s history of bringing it to the UK gave the whole session real context, and the practical tips on whisking technique actually changed my morning cup. It’s clear, hands-on, and worth every minute if

Sebastian ★★★★★

The historical context Henrietta brings to the class is such a refreshing change from the usual trendy-matcha talk, I actually booked a second session to bring a friend. The way she breaks down the entire journey from Japan to UK teacups made me appreciate every single bowl I whisk up at home now.
