ORIGINAL BLENDS INSPIRED BY SOUTHEAST ASIA
GARDEN-DIRECT TEAS FROM FAMILY FARMS
HOUSE-MILLED CEREMONIAL MATCHA 32
Every week, we produce a limited number of 30 g tins of our signature house-milled matcha.
We source hand-picked tea leaves from Kyoto (this matcha is made from a blend of the Okumidori and Samidori cultivars) and mill it fresh in our shop using our custom ishi usu (石臼, Japanese for "stone mill"). It takes about an hour to make enough for each tin, which is why we produce so few. The flavor profile is savory, nutty, and smooth.

REVIEWS FROM PARU CUSTOMERS
Paru always has the best customer service and product quality. The matcha is delicious and has such a nice soft texture before whisking . Very happy with my purchase:)
Super creamy and roasted with caramel and chocolate notes!!! Delicious and will be repurchasing!
To me, this is the best hojicha. Not too sweet, not too roasted. Smooth, rich and creamy. I don’t even need sweeteners to make my latte. It’s just so good
My son absolutely loves the Genmaicha tea and will make it on his own.

Each sip of this tea transports me to a moment of sheer bliss. One of the best teas ive ever tasted!
This tea is so tasty and comforting, almost like dessert but not too sweet. The pandan waffle is my first tea from Paru, and I'm already so impressed with both their tea and customer service!
This is a 10/10 black/red tea. It brews up beautifully and lasts for several steeps. There is absolutely no bitterness and it has a rich, complex flavor with no surprises. Exactly what I want in a dark tea.
This makes the smoothest matcha. The taste is so clean and there’s no bitterness. Highly recommend
When I visited the store in San Diego, I didn’t buy anything because I assumed it would be too expensive. I was totally wrong. This matcha is very affordable and it tastes incredible. The color is gorgeous and the flavor is incredible. I can’t wait to buy more!
my experience with PARU was great overall -- the kind and informative staff make it easy to find what you're looking for, and the thoughtful presentation of both the tea and merchandise makes any visit an enjoyable one.
