India's first commercially produced matcha
Made in Assam, from Assam's own tea plant.
A new origin for matcha
Matcha has come almost entirely from Japan, with smaller volumes from China and Vietnam, while global demand has outpaced supply.
Matcha Assamica gives Indian cafés, bakeries and brands a home-grown source, with the traceability of a single estate.
"We are confident that Matcha produced in Assam will soon reach consumers across India and overseas."Mrityunjay JalanManaging Director, Chota Tingrai Tea Estate, to ETV Bharat
