Mei-san: A name, a soul, a taste.
At Maïdo, each matcha has a first name. Not just for aesthetics, but to reflect its character and identity.
Mei (芽依), in Japanese, means bud, young shoot, life emerging.
And that's exactly what it embodies: the gentleness of new beginnings, the tenderness of a calm morning, the promise of a moment for oneself.
It's the matcha that welcomes you gently, the one you discover with curiosity... and that you adopt without ever tiring of it.
Not pretentious, but full of charm.
A bit like a gentle friend offering you a cup with a smile: "Here, try this, you'll love it."

How to prepare your matcha?
3 simple steps for a perfect matcha
Measure your matcha
Add 1 to 2 bamboo scoops (chashaku) of matcha to your bowl, depending on desired strength.
Sift your matcha to avoid lumps!
Add the hot water
Pour preserve the flavors, pour in 60 to 80ml of hot (but not boiling!) water at a maximum of 80°C.
Water that is too hot makes matcha bitter. 70-80°C is perfect!
Whisk in an "M" shape
Using your chasen (bamboo whisk), whisk vigorously in "M" shapes like Maïdo until you get a smooth foam.
The secret: quick wrist movements, not arm movements!
What's the difference between our matchas?
What makes matcha so special?
Gentle and stress-free energy
Unlike coffee, matcha boosts without the jitters. It promotes stress reduction, offering a calming and steady vitality, accompanied by a feeling of well-being that lasts for hours.
Powerful antioxidants
A small spoonful of matcha contains more antioxidants than a handful of blueberries. A real natural boost to support your body every day.
Calm & Mental Clarity
L-theanine naturally present in matcha promotes a clear, focused, and calm mind. Perfect for staying focused without tension. The zen and productive duo we love!
Easy digestion & happy tummy
Matcha aids digestion and reduces bloating. A gentle ally for those with sensitive stomachs.
FAQs
Mei-san is the epitome of smoothness: very little bitterness, a silky texture, a lovely roundness... and a subtle hint of hazelnut that caresses the palate.
Daichi-san, on the other hand, is like an imposing older brother: more intense, greener, livelier. If Mei-san whispers in your ear, Daichi-san speaks loudly (but with passion)
Absolutely! Mei-san is delicious as usucha (the traditional version, whisked with hot water) — that's how it's enjoyed to fully experience its sweetness and umami.
But if you're in the mood for a creamy, comforting latte, it's also perfectly suited for that. Its natural richness pairs perfectly with milk (dairy or plant-based), without any bitterness or overwhelming flavor. Mei-san is a matcha that aims to please, no matter how it's prepared.
Matcha contains a little caffeine (around 30 mg per serving), so as always during pregnancy: listen to your body, be reasonable, and if in doubt… ask your favorite doctor. Mei-san won't be offended.
Not at all. Mei-san, it's pure matcha, full stop. No sugar, no coloring, no added flavor. Just shade-grown Tencha leaves, hand-picked, then stone-ground. Nothing more, nothing hidden—and that's much better.
Matcha, but not just anyhow
It all started in Japan, with a rejection... then a revelation. I couldn't find that matcha, the one that made me slow down, savor, and understand, anywhere in France. So, we decided to share it, genuinely, without fuss, and without strange powders.
Behind Maïdo Matcha, there's a real story, encounters, suitcases full of tea, and a lot of curiosity.
Maïdo is much more than matcha
At Maïdo Matcha, we don't do things by halves. Our teas are grown in Japan, respecting traditions, without additives or questionable powders. We prioritize authenticity, transparency, and a sincere approach, no unnecessary fuss.
Our partners share this vision: eco-responsible logistics, zero plastic, 100% green energy, and humane and equitable working conditions.
And above all, we remain true to our mission: to help you discover exceptional matchas, to be accessible, honest, and always a little bit complicit.
