It a little bit of Matcha education, a little bit about the business, a little bit about me and how my heart is at the centre of my hustle!
Learn about:

- a bit about what Matcha is and it's significance in Japanese culture
- tips for other business owners to keep going without burning out with practical self care routines
- how to push past fear, self sabotage and anxiety by changing mindset
Bit of trivia - Did you know what Matcha means in Japanese?
Ma - means stone ground and Cha means Tea. So it literally means stone ground Green Tea Powder
How cool is that?

With the trip to Japan but a distant memory, it's time to reminisce and share what wonderful experiences I had while there.
Very much a standout was the tea farm visit in Uji. Uji is a quaint town about 20 mins by train south of Kyoto (if you were travelling to Nara you would pass through it)
In Uji you can wander through a street called Byodoin Omotesando and literally smell the aroma of Matcha Green Tea in the air ahhh!
But more on that another time!
The main reason for visiting Uji was to meet the family behind the Tea Farm our Premium Matcha is sourced from and witness Ichibancha (or first harvest) that takes place in May each year.

Superb!
