Which Matcha Is Right for You?

What Is Matcha?

Matcha is powdered green tea made from carefully cultivated and shade-grown leaves, then stone-milled into a fine powder. But not all matcha is the same.

At SOKAÌ, we offer three distinct expressions of matcha — Ceremonial, Bloom, and Ritual — each designed for a different moment, a different energy.

Understanding the difference ensures you’re choosing the right blend for the experience you seek — whether it's stillness, balance, or creativity.

Ceremonial

Our most refined and elevated blend. Ceremonial is made from the first flush of spring leaves — the youngest, most vibrant, and rich in L-theanine. Ground slowly in small batches, it offers a smooth texture, bright green color, and subtle umami depth.

Best for
– Pure sipping, whisked with hot water
– Meditation and intentional rituals
– Morning moments of clarity

Profile
– No bitterness, no sweetener needed
– Vibrant color, deep aroma
– Silky finish with natural sweetness

SOKAÌ Ceremonial is wild-grown in Yame, Japan — a matcha for those who sip in silence.

Bloom

Balanced and versatile, Bloom is made for daily rituals. Sourced from slightly older leaves, it carries a creamier body and blends beautifully with milk or plant-based alternatives. Smooth, soft, and energy-lifting.

Best for
– Matcha lattes (hot or iced)
– Afternoon resets and creative flow
– Smooth morning energy

Profile
– Subtle, mellow taste
– Slight vegetal touch
– Pairs well with vanilla, honey, or spices

SOKAÌ Bloom is your go-to for nourishing rhythm and daily balance.

Ritual

Crafted for recipes, Ritual offers a bold, expressive matcha profile. Slightly more robust, it holds its own in smoothies, baking, or mixed beverages. It’s affordable, flexible, and full of character.

Best for
– Smoothies and functional blends
– Baking, desserts, or matcha-infused dishes
– First explorations into matcha

Profile
– Earthier flavor
– Slight bitterness, intentional edge
– Designed to blend, not overpower

SOKAÌ Ritual is matcha for the creative hand — strong, adaptive, purposeful.
