The Tea Tapes

Organic | Direct Trade | Imperial Grade

On the tea farm in Uji, Kyoto, Japan

The Tea Tapes works at origin in Japan to source skillfully crafted matcha from extraordinary tea farms in Kyoto, Shizuoka, and Kagoshima.

We only source 100% organic tea and are wholly committed to sustainability, tight relationships with producers, and delicious brews.

We do this for a reason.

We’re journalists and this brand is the first step in funding an independent media outlet without ads or donor influence shaping what we cover.

It’s a brand-new business model for journalistic integrity only found at The Tea Tapes.

Here’s our roadmap.

"My typical day starts at the coffee shop where I drink a latte with two shots of espresso. Afterwards, I go the salon to work and make a cup of Tea Tapes Matcha. It keeps me going through the day unlike black teas I've tried. Plus, it's creamy and delicious."

"When I tasted The Tea Tapes matcha, I said, 'that’s it, that’s the flavor that I’m looking for.' It’s a jolt of energy, it’s like full-body energizing, not just mind. When I drink matcha, I’m ready to go climb. And my customers like it for the same reason."
