Quality and Authenticity

The Sugimoto family has been making Japanese green tea and matcha for three generations and have a network of skilled farmers across Japan from whom we can source the best leaves for any project. Thanks to this legacy of skilled craftsmanship and the relationships we’ve built with farmers, we make authentic Japanese matcha and other green teas that are beloved by people all across the globe.

But quality is about more than the final taste of the tea. We take pride in standardizing quality through all of our processes. The first step in our manufacturing is safely receiving the tea at our processing facility. We have a pressurized receiving area so that foreign material will not enter our factory when the door is opened. Our state of the art equipment and testing ensures that the matcha and other Japanese green teas are safe and handled properly.

For large orders and the most economical pricing, we provide bulk matcha and other green teas by the 15 kg-30 kg case. To ensure a safe delivery, cases consist of sturdy, double-walled cardboard boxes lined with aluminum-polymer bags that are nitrogen-flushed and sealed for maximum storage life and freshness. Unopened boxes retain freshness for two years or more with proper storage.

Environmental and Social Responsibility

At Sugimoto Tea Company, we care about our environmental impact. This is why we take many measures to protect the environment of the Japanese countryside where we produce matcha and other green teas. From Chagusaba to solar panels, read more here about our commitment to being environmentally sustainable.

If you’re looking for fair trade matcha and other green teas, sourcing directly from Japan is one of the best ways to go. Japan is a fully developed country where tea farmers and their families have easy access to healthcare and education, and are protected by labor safety laws.
