Product Details
Tasting Profile
Shade Grown
Silky and balanced with sweet umami, fresh young greens, and creamy body. Subtle notes of steamed spinach, tender nori, and a lingering, honeyed finish with low bitterness.
Origin & Region
Japan
Ceremonial grade matcha sourced from shade-grown tea gardens in renowned Japanese growing areas. Tender, first-harvest leaves are stone-milled into an ultra-fine powder, emphasizing sweetness, vibrancy, and umami.
Altitude & Processing
Typical tea elevations: 300–2,000 ft
Shade-grown for several weeks to enhance chlorophyll and amino acids, then hand-plucked, steamed to prevent oxidation, dried, and de-stemmed into tencha before slow stone-milling into fine matcha.
Blend Composition
100% Matcha
Single-cultivar and select-cultivar blends of shade-grown, first-flush tencha, stone-milled to preserve aroma, color, and sweetness.

🔧 How to Prepare Cowboy Zen (The Ranch Ritual)
1. Measure the Green Gold
Add ½–1 teaspoon of Cowboy Zen matcha to your bowl or mug.
(Use more for a stronger, creamier cup.)
2. Add Water with Intention
Pour in 2 oz of hot water around 160–175°F.
Hot enough to wake the leaves, never boiling — treat it with respect.
3. Whisk to Life
Use a bamboo whisk (or a fork if you’re out on the range).
Whisk in a W‑motion until the matcha turns smooth, bright, and lightly frothy.
4. Finish the Cup
Add 6–8 oz of hot water or steamed milk for a latte‑style drink.
Stir gently and let the aroma rise like morning steam off the pasture.
5. Slow the Pace
Sip a cup that’s silky, sweet, umami‑rich, and clean, built for
focus, calm, and a moment of Cowboy Zen before the day kicks up dust.
