Matcha Rituals - how to create your daily Nagi Ritual
Matcha Rituals - A moment of balance every day
At Nagi, we believe that matcha is more than just a drink - it’s a ritual, a moment of calm, and a source of natural focus. Our certified organic ceremonial matcha from Uji, Japan, has been carefully stone-ground from the first flush harvest of the Saemidori cultivar, offering vibrant colour, smooth umami, and gentle natural sweetness.
Creating a daily matcha ritual can help you slow down, recharge, and reconnect with yourself, even amidst a busy day.
Why rituals matter
Rituals aren’t just habits. They are deliberate actions that anchor us in the present moment. Incorporating matcha into a mindful ritual:
- Encourages intentional pauses throughout your day
- Supports mental clarity with natural L-theanine and gentle caffeine
- Cultivates a sense of harmony, balance, and wellbeing
By taking 5–10 minutes to prepare and savour your matcha, you create a small, meaningful ceremony that sets a calm tone for the day.
How to create your daily Nagi Matcha Ritual
Step 1: Choose your moment
Select a quiet time - morning to energize, afternoon to refocus, or evening for mindful reflection. We advise to not drink matcha in the evening, as it does contain caffeine, but you choose your flow.
Step 2: Prepare your tools
- Nagi organic ceremonial matcha (we prefer 2g-3g)
- Chawan (matcha bowl)
- Chasen (bamboo whisk)
- Chashaku (bamboo spoon)
- Small sifter
- Cool, room temperature water
- Warm water (~75°C / 170°F)
- Your favourite cup
- (Plant based) milk to your liking
Step 3: Mindful preparation
- Measure the matcha into your sifter
- Sift the powder into the bowl using the bamboo spoon
- Add in just a few drops of cool water and slowly whisk into a thick paste
- Pour hot water into the bowl slowly
- Briefly whisk in a “W” or “M” motion until frothy
- Once matcha is frothy move the whisk to the surface and start to slow down the movement, watch as a microfoam forms
- Pour tea into your chosen cup
- Either drink it pure or add in milk to your liking
Step 4: Savour
- Take a moment to inhale the aroma
- Sip slowly, appreciating the natural sweetness and umami flavour
- Focus on the warmth, colour, and texture. Allow yourself to pause
Step 5: Reflect
- Spend a few moments breathing or journaling
- Carry the sense of calm and focus into the rest of your day
Tips for ritual success
- Consistency: Even a 5-minute daily ritual can transform your mindset
- Environment: Light a candle or play soft music to enhance your sensory experience
