Real matcha comes from Japan and is made from the finest shade-grown leaves. To reap its health benefits, origin and meticulous processing are crucial. OMGTea upholds this tradition, ensuring no corners are cut. Carefully crafted and cultivated under optimal conditions, their matcha delivers unmatched quality and wellbeing benefits.

OMGTea’s AA Grade Matcha Tea shines thanks to its origin in the Kagoshima prefecture, on the southern island of Kyûshû, Japan. The warm, humid climate and nutrient-rich volcanic soil, fed by eleven active volcanoes, create perfect conditions for cultivating premium organic matcha. With a rich history of over 700 years of tea cultivation, Kagoshima is Japan's second-largest tea-producing region, especially noted for its high-quality organic matcha.

OMGTea’s cultivation involves shading plants with bamboo for three to four weeks before harvest, reducing sunlight by 90%. This technique boosts chlorophyll production, enriching the leaves with amino acids and turning them a vibrant emerald green. Only the youngest, tender leaves from the top of the plant are picked, steamed, and freeze-dried. The highest quality leaves are then ground into super fine matcha powder using granite stone mills in a meticulously controlled environment, taking over an hour to grind just 30 grams.

They take it one step further by being a brand deeply rooted in science, collaborating with leading medical professionals in the UK to research matcha’s health claims. Fuelled by cutting-edge research, OMGTea's products are at the forefront of innovation. With groundbreaking studies on matcha's impact on fat oxidation and breast cancer stem cells, OMGTea isn't just a brand—it's a trailblazer in health research.

OMGTea was born from founder Katherine's determination to help her mum after a serious illness diagnosis. Immersed in the research at a breast cancer charity, Katherine discovered the incredible benefits of antioxidants. Her journey led her to matcha, a potent source of these disease-fighting compounds. Witnessing remarkable improvements in her mum's health and experiencing a boost in her own wellbeing, Katherine was inspired. Five years later, she launched OMGTea, a company dedicated to sharing the transformative power of matcha. Expanding her positive impact even further, Katherine also founded The Healthy Life Foundation, a charity funding research into age-related diseases, including cancer.
