It’s week 06 / 2025

This week, we invite you to try your hand at a new skill. Our AGOBAY Masterclass series covers an increasingly diverse range of topics via easy-to-follow films, each led by a master in their field. Often, it’s these simple lessons that enrich our daily lives – from the optimal water temperature and ideal teapot shape to enhance gyokuro, to the precise technique for a finely frothed cup of matcha. Having the correct tools and high-quality tea are also essential for an authentic experience. AGOBAY’s own Uji blend of ceremonial grade matcha, ground in small batches using a traditional stone mill, reaches its full aromatic potential with OGATA’s matcha whisk, carved from a single piece of bamboo. Discover these and more in the Matcha category of our online shop.
