Story of Ceremonial Matcha HIJIRI-NO-SATO
HIJIRI-NO-SATO (聖の里) is a ceremonial grade matcha from Uji, Japan. This stone-ground matcha blends Yabukita, Okumidori, and Gokou cultivars.

from 91 reviewsI have not received my tea!!!!
I absolutely the Jasmine Dragon Pearls/ Buddhas Tears. I have a very sensitive tummy and often struggle to unwind after a long workday.With this amazing tea , it’s such so tasteful and light and ooh so refreshing and relaxing. I’ve tried so many different teas but this is my all time favourite.
This is probably one of my favourite teas, so delicious!
Good quality product but the container cover needs improvement., easily loose and not air tight .
I'd never thought to combine Puerh with lavender, but this makes for a very soothing flavour combination. The calming lavender and earthy puerh feels very 'Tasmanian'. I'm looking forward to trying more teas here.
Such a lovely, sweet, smooth tea.
Jasmine Dragon Pearls / Buddhas Tears
I know it's a big call but it's true - it's my favourite tea ever. I tried it on a retreat in Tasmania and fell in love. Look forward to my little daily cup! Love the earthy flavour

Dong Ding Oolong is one of my go-to teas when working long hours in the clinic. It gives me a lovely little lift and brightens my mind so I can be a better practitioner. It has beautiful floral aromatic tones and such a clean finish. I love to drink this tea in my Gaiwan tea pots! Moment of Tea are the best!
I tried this tea at the Salamanca Market's earlier this year and absolutely fell in love, slowly worked my way through the tin I bought over the past few months and have finally ordered a replacement. Absolutely going to keep coming back as I drink this at least a few times every week!
