This is the best ceremonial grade match green tea that I've ever tasted. I love its green vivid color, the smooth and delicious tastes. My go to matcha green tea that I can't live without. I'm looking forward waking up each morning for my cup of my Haruna Organic Ceremonial Matcha

Have been eyeing Zen Wonders Matcha for a while. Had a matcha latte overseas and couldn’t stop craving it so finally purchased it! Their website gives you all the relevant information without overloading it. Side note- also been overseas my bank temporarily put a block on my card as it thought it was lost / stolen / subject to fraud. I really appreciate Zen Wonders offering alternative payment methods like a BSB / ACC transfer. Don’t see that often with other vendors. You’d otherwise be stuck until you sort it out with the bank.

Shipping was advertised, 2-3 business days. The items came packaged beautifully in a black box with care taken to wrap all the items to ensure they are not damaged in transit.

I purchased the Yukiro and Kohiki. Yet to try them. But the glassware they came in was elegant.

Also purchased the Genmaicha Chocolate Bar - a good balance of matcha and roasted brown rice - however a tad to sweet for my liking.

Can’t wait to make my first matcha latte and try the others!

THE BEST matcha you can find. I bulk buy the Kohiki blend and use it for matcha lattes. No matcha latte I have purchase at a cafe compares to this quality. Beautiful packaging. Great service. Quick delivery. Definitely give it a try:)

I love this company. I buy their culinary matcha and it’s such amazing quality and truly reasonably priced. It’s the only matcha I buy now.
I recently had an order that was damaged in shipping and I lost some matcha but they were so awesome in sorting it out and went above and beyond. I feel very comfortable recommending buying from them:)

Update: I have made multiple orders with Zenwonders now.

Zen Wonders is wonderful. Roberto offers great service and communication (prompt replies!). I also really like the help chat box on the side of the website as it is really helpful. I plan to make another purchase as I have nearly finished my first order of matcha. I used it to make matcha lattes. Great product and great value. I definitely recommend Zen Wonders!

So great to deal with! Super friendly and helpful. Some of the product ordered was wrong for a bday gift so they shipped out the right item straight away and left a little chocolate surprise too. They were so easy and pleasant to deal with. Would recommend.

Lovely business. Roberto is organised and very kind. So happy I decided to start drinking matcha and now using my chawan and chasen every morning:)

Specifically rating on the chocolate: I have given a star up for its taste. With its unusual taste of multiple black hair strands stuck in the middle of the chocolate. It also gave quite a texture that was hard to chew and digest:). My family was left with all sorts of emotions during this Melbourne lockdown where hygiene mattered the most.

I can almost guarantee that you will not find better quality matcha or sencha in Australia. It's been really great rotating this company's teas lately, because it's really easy in Australia to get burned (no pun intended) by terrible-quality, dusty tasting green tea (especially when it's Japanese tea, because it is likely to cost more to produce in good quality than competitor countries' products). Nothing could be further from the experiences I've had with this company.

Before this, I had to import Japanese tea, either directly from Japan (O-cha, Ippodo, and other companies) or through higher-quality mainstream overseas brands like Rishi or Breakaway Matcha. This can add so much time to the transaction, and there also seems to be differing opinions as to what constitutes good quality matcha, as some Japanese companies are charging a higher price for "ceremonial" matchas that are actually less enjoyable to drink than ones in Zen Wonders' "culinary" tier of quality.

Products I've tried so far:
-Kohiki culinary matcha
-Shizen organic culinary matcha
-Taishiro culinary matcha
-Fukamushi 01 (sencha)
-Sencha 01

I'm on the second purchase of all three matchas because I was so satisfied with them (I use them for matcha soy lattes, preparation of sweet matcha snacks, and for fruit-flavoured iced tea drinks), and the two senchas have really been all that I'd hoped for. Even with proper brewing, some sencha can end up really acidic in my opinion, and sometimes there's less of the grassy, sweet, fruity nuances I appreciate. Not with these! They're been so pleasant to drink on the recent cold days in NSW where we've been inundated with rain. Also, I really feel that you can't skirt quality expectations with matcha. If it doesn't taste good, that realisation is so all-encompassing because it's a product that has such an intense flavour. There's really some crimes against matcha occurring out there - but I don't have to embroil myself with them now, because I have a reliable Australian supplier.

I'm really glad I've finally found a company in Australia offering genuinely good Japanese tea, and delivering it promptly so that I can get started on the magic sooner. Earlier this year, I'd never even heard of this company. Now I would not hesitate to call them one of Australia's highest-quality tea sellers. I went a bit haywire and bought 400g tea in the last order and am working through it, but I know I'll be right back there when it's used up. Don't change! You're so good!

Very good quality and services, Roberto respond very quick so that I'm able to pick it up as soon as possible once I place the order. The Matcha powder has very nice colour and flavour, I love to use it in baking.

Amazing quality matcha! Silky smooth, verdant, and sweet. I bought the Hanae ceremonial grade matcha with the glass jar (which was excellent quality too). Fast shipping & well packed. Thank you - I’ll definitely be purchasing refills from you in the future.

Broght Kohiki premium 1kg for the first time. Brought it after reading the recommendation by Roberto on the website. It is one of the best matcha i have tried to date. It smells great when its open, and it tastes not bitter but aromatic of matcha. Very premium grade. I cannot fault the product at all. Thank you roberto. Kind regards happy returning customer.

My order didn't arrive for two months and got rerouted back to Melbourne. Sent Zen Wonders an email and they happily gave me a full refund and even dispatched the same order to me via Express Post! So grateful and wonderful service. Can't wait to try it out! Thank you:)

Superfast delivery, even taking into account the high demand on the postal system due to stage 4 restrictions in Melbourne at the moment. My order arrived carefully and beautifully packaged. Ordered the TAISHIRO Culinary Matcha to use in baking, but used today to make a matcha latte, and it was perfect. I will definitely be ordering from Zen Wonders again.

I needed a Matcha tea set, emailed Zen Saturday morning asking if there were any available and I'd paid and picked it up by 1pm that day, excellent responsive service, excellent tea set.

Thanks Zen:)

High quality and thoughtfully sourced tea leaves and matcha. Roberto lives and breathes what he does and his passion for tea is evident in his work and always felt.

I’ve had matcha and tea leaves from several sources in the past, having what I once thought was very good product, and indeed they were, but I can honestly say Zenwonders exceeds them all in quality, consistency and flavour. It’s a blessing to have found the best japanese tea here in Australia from a very good supplier. ️

I bought 100g of matcha powder Haruna (organic ceremonial grade). I cannot be more satisfied, it is definitely the best place to buy your matcha. Amazing flavours and great quality. I'll keep buying my tea from them and I strongly recommend this shop if you are looking for premium quality matcha powder with the best flavour in Melbourne.

Love, love, love! This online retailer offers the best quality matcha in town! I've been hooked, and keep coming back for more once I run out of my premium Kohiki matcha powder. Also I really love the aesthetics of their packaging, just so pleasing every time! Oh, did I mention that their customer service is on point as well?
