Cha Lab by Elaiksir

Single origin from Uji, Japan

KinSan is sourced through an exclusive partnership with a single tea house in Uji, Kyoto — a producer with over 160 years of history, which provides consistent access to a grade of raw material that is not commercially available through standard wholesale channels.

The KinSan hojicha expresses a deeper, rounder profile without the grassy sharpness found in younger tea leaves.

Preparation Guide

Hand whisking
Sift 6g tea powder into a bowl, add 60ml water, and whisk briskly in a W-motion until a fine foam forms. Use as a base for water, milk, or other ingredients.
With the Cha Maker
Add 60ml water to the Cha Maker first, then add 6g tea powder. Press the button, and a smooth, hand-whisk-quality matcha shot is ready in 30-60 seconds. Use as a base for water, milk, or other ingredients.

Cha Maker was designed around Cha Lab by Elaiksir's tea selection.

Its automated whisking cycle — spreading, blending, foaming, and homogenizing — is calibrated to produce smoother texture, denser foam, and more consistent flavor expression with no temperature management, whisking technique, or sifting required.

Why Cha Lab by Elaiksir

Cha Lab by Elaiksir works exclusively with a limited number of Japanese tea producers whose standards align with our philosophy of precision tea craft.KinSan is selected specifically for roasting.

While most commercial hojicha are milled between 200–400 mesh, ours is processed to an ultra-fine 800–1000 mesh for smoother suspension, reduced grittiness, and a more continuous flavor expression in milk-based and various drink preparations.

FAQ

Can I prepare it cold?

Yes. Our tea powders perform well in both hot and iced beverages. For the best flavor and suspension, first whisk 4g tea powder with 60ml water to create a smooth concentrate as a base with milk, hot or ice water, or other ingredients as desired.

Do I need the Cha Maker to prepare the tea?

Cha Lab by Elaiksir’s tea powders can be prepared with a traditional matcha kit. While the Cha Maker manages temperature and whisking progression automatically — producing consistent results without technique or monitoring required.

Is the tea available wholesale or in larger quantities?

Yes. All tea products from Cha Lab by Elaiksir are available in bulk format for café and commercial programs. For pricing and minimum order details, contact sales@elaiksir.com or visit our wholesale section.
