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.

The arrangement provides consistent access to a grade of raw material that is not commercially available through standard wholesale channels. The 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.

The 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, Cha Lab by Elaiksir’s 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

What is the minimum order quantity?

Minimum order for wholesale pricing is 1kg. Sample packs of 20g are also available.

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.

How consistent is the output across a full service shift?

The ultra-fine particle structure suspends uniformly in both hot and cold applications, which means color and texture remain stable from the first cup to the last. When paired with the Cha Maker, output is mechanically consistent — no variation from staff technique or fatigue.

Is there the option for private label or long-term partnership?

Cha Lab by Elaiksir works with select café and hospitality partners on long-term sourcing arrangements. The engagements are handled case by case. To begin a conversation, contact sales@elaiksir.com directly.
