World Matcha Inc.

Cuzen Matcha is an innovative matcha system, consisting of Matcha Maker and Matcha Leaf, that produces remarkably fresh matcha out of organic shade-grown matcha leaves from Japan. This freshly ground matcha has a smooth, balanced flavor and gives the drinker a mellow, focused energy that lasts, becoming a healthier coffee alternative. So far, over 8,000 home-use machines have been sold worldwide and the monthly refill leaf revenue is now reaching $60,000. The product won several awards globally, including a CES 2020 Innovation Awards Honoree, a TIME’s Best Inventions of 2020, iF Design Award 2021 (Germany) and Good Design Award 2021 (Japan). In December 2023, the company closed a Series A funding to launch a new commercial-use matcha maker, which blends the superb quality and convenience of the original at-home matcha maker with the added capacity and values required for cafes and restaurants. The commercial-use machine will be officially launched in Fall 2024.
