Why Constance
Most cafés use pre-ground matcha powder that's been sitting for weeks — or months. Constance does it differently. We stone-mill our matcha fresh, preserving the volatile aromatics, bright color, and nuanced flavor that disappear the moment matcha is pre-ground.
Our granite millstone grinds whole tencha leaves into fine powder each morning. That's the only way to capture the full flavor.
We source high-quality tencha leaves — the specific shade-grown leaf used for matcha — so the base is exceptional before it ever hits the stone.
Serious matcha, approachable drinks. Whether you want a traditional bowl or an iced latte, we bring the same freshly milled matcha to both.
