From Beyond Our Farm

There are a few teas we love at home that use ingredients we simply can’t grow in our Ontario climate. To bring those to you, we’ve partnered with small, high-quality makers whose products we enjoy ourselves. Each one is thoughtfully sourced and crafted with the same respect for ingredients that guides our own work in the fields.

Our premium Matcha Barista is perfect for lattes, smoothies and baking.

Its emulsion is a bright, intense green, a colour prized by matcha enthusiasts. It offers distinct vegetal notes of arugula accompanied by subtle hints of milk chocolate, giving the tea such a well-balanced flavour. The stimulating effect is instantaneous!

This matcha is produced in the province of Guizhou from leaves harvested under under covered growing, as practiced for the finest Japanese matcha. This technique encourages the tea plants to produce more chlorophyll and results in less bitterness in the leaves, giving the matcha greater smoothness and roundness.
