Love At First Sip
Hi! My name is Yi Jia and I am the founder of Matcha Michi. Michi translates to 'way of life', and Matcha Michi thus translates to matcha as a way of life!
Matcha Michi came about because of my immense and unwavering love for matcha, where it was love at first sip! Since then, I could never look back!
This resulted in me drinking matcha on a daily (and nightly!) basis, consuming matcha everyday more than what is considered healthy! (But who is really counting).
Since then, my appreciation for this beautiful agricultural product has only grown, from experiencing various cultivars of matcha from Japan, Korea and China, to nailing different matcha types during a blind tasting! Having discovered many different amazing types of matcha, it was too rude to not share! Coupled with my love for pottery and the many beautiful chawans, alongside a new found respect for the matcha whisk (chasen), Matcha Michi was born.
Matcha is more than just a drink to me, it is now a daily ritual (many times over). It allows me to savour the quiet moments in the morning and throughout the day, and reminds me to breathe and pause while going about hectic daily life.
My goal is to help you discover the beauty of matcha, and the peace and joy it can bring to your life. Thank you for joining me on this wonderful journey in enjoying matcha and building our community together.
