It’s arrived and we are excited to be able to serve you some of the most delicious matcha on this rock!

From our longtime friend and tea guru Joe's Tea Co, Joe writes the following about this brand new product:

“Our premium grade matcha has landed. Sourced straight from the misty hills of Shizuoka and Kagoshima, Japan. Grown at 600m altitude and stone-ground the traditional way, this matcha has heritage in every sip. Expect a vibrant green hue. A smooth, umami taste. And clean energy that doesn’t crash. Whisk it. Sip it. Stir it into a latte or blend it into a smoothie. However you take it, it’s a moment worth making.” 👌

Bring this on quickly… wow amazing

Researchers at Japan’s RIKEN Center and the University of Tokyo, led by Dr. Takashi Nishikawa, have developed a biodegradable plastic that dissolves in seawater within hours and breaks down in soil in ten days, releasing nutrients like phosphorus and nitrogen to enhance soil fertility.

Made from sodium hexametaphosphate and guanidinium-based monomers, it decomposes without microplastic residue, is non-toxic, and supports a circular economy with 91% of its components recyclable.

This innovation, ideal for agricultural mulch, fishing gear, and eco-friendly packaging, could significantly reduce plastic waste and promote sustainable farming.
