Society is moving at breakneck speed. While today's pace feels uniquely frantic, Japan's royal era was no stranger to haste.

To assuage symptoms of societal stress, dignitaries during the Edo and Meiji periods sipped esteemed single cultivar tea — the rarest of drinks for the highest of minds.

Today, Circadian leaves carry this inherent legacy, reverence and prestige. A brew for thinkers, Circadian embodies the true essence of Japan's unrushed grace.

We honor this heritage with a singular focus on one masterfully crafted experience. A quiet, refined, eminently flavorful infusion, Circadian offers not only a worthy alternative to alcohol, but an antioxidant-rich energy boost, and clarifying cleanse for a clouded mind.

Growing in the dark reduces the leaves' rate of photosynthesis, boosting chlorophyll and mineral levels, and amino acids. It also distinguishes Circadian from all other teas, coaxing its finest qualities from the shade into the light.

We harvest only once per year, and only the top ten to twelve centimeters of the healthiest young buds—unlike teas that go through multiple flushes, which can result in a less refined flavor.

Our rare and exclusive cultivar is grown only in 0.01% of Japan.

Singularly focused on umami and aroma, Circadian works directly with farmers to order our tea freshly, preserving and prolonging that 'just harvested' taste and experience.

Visiting our partner farm multiple times per year, we're deeply inspired by the no-metropolitan-nonsense legacy of the Japanese countryside and fifth generational focus of our farmers. They are not just our partners, they are our teachers, and our friends.

We spent the last fifteen years surveying every possible green tea in the world before selecting the unique single cultivar at the heart of Circadian. Now, we're ardently committed to introducing the world to the most exceptional and masterfully prepared tea.

Circadian is characterized by an electric green color and rich, layered velvety mouthfeel. It is naturally sweet without bitterness, and has delicate oceanic undertones and a beautiful umami coating.
