Tenko by Hekisuien – A Matcha Experience Like No Other

Elevate your daily ritual with Tenko by Hekisuien, a ceremonial-grade matcha now available exclusively at Ujicha Matcha. Grown in the historic tea fields of Uji, Japan, this first-harvest matcha is crafted from the youngest, most tender tea leaves—handpicked at the peak of the season and stone-ground to a silky, vibrant green powder.

The name Tenko, meaning “heavenly radiance,” reflects the tea’s exquisite balance and refined taste. With a lusciously smooth umami, delicate natural sweetness, and almost no bitterness, Tenko offers a full-bodied, velvety texture and an elegant aroma reminiscent of fresh spring greens and a whisper of sea breeze.

Perfect for preparing usucha (thin matcha) or the more intense and meditative koicha (thick matcha), Tenko also shines in matcha lattes when you want to indulge in a luxurious, wellness-forward moment. Whether you’re savoring a quiet morning or sharing a thoughtful cup with a friend, this matcha transforms any moment into a meaningful ritual.

What makes Tenko truly special is its heritage. Produced by Hekisuien, a revered Kyoto-based tea maker with over a century of craftsmanship, this matcha embodies the timeless art of Uji tea. From soil to sip, every step honors tradition, purity, and excellence.
