Is your matcha organic? / オーガニックですか?

To be honest, the obsession with "Organic" labels often overlooks the most important thing: Taste and Umami.

In Japan, many of us wonder why so many visitors buy anything just because it has an "Organic" label, without truly understanding the quality.

The Truth: You cannot create deep Umami without proper nutrients (fertilizer).

To produce the rich, mellow sweetness that authentic Uji matcha is famous for, tea leaves require high-quality nutrients. Currently, it is extremely difficult to achieve this pinnacle of flavor using only 100% organic methods.

抹茶イラストWhy Japanese people don't obsess over "Organic":


  1. Strict Safety Standards:
    Japan has some of the world’s strictest regulations on pesticides. The Kyoto government and JA (Japan Agricultural Cooperatives) strictly monitor and record every application. Residue levels are consistently far below international safety limits.

  2. The Cost-Flavor Balance:
    Producing certified organic matcha that meets our flavor standards would result in a price that simply doesn't make sense for our customers.


抹茶イラストOur Choice: Safety and Flavor over Labels.

Japanese consumers trust our food safety laws so much that very few obsess over organic labels. We invite you to experience the safety and profound taste of authentic Japanese matcha?beyond the marketing buzzwords.

抹茶イラストRadioactivity Testing & Origin Safety

Safety is our absolute priority. We only source from regions with no risks. Some international customers still ask about radioactivity. Rest assured, Kyoto and the Uji region are located in Western Japan, over 500km (310 miles) away from the affected areas of the 2011 disaster.

Strict Monitoring by Kyoto Government: The Kyoto Prefecture and tea associations conduct regular, rigorous testing on all tea leaves. Not a single trace of harmful radioactivity has ever been detected in Uji tea.

At Maru Take Ebisu, we only sell what we and our own families' drink every day with total peace of mind.
