MATCHA GARETTE is a product that combines the traditional French confection Galette Bretonne with Uji matcha flavor. This region has a long-standing tradition of dairy farming, characterized by the lavish use of butter in cooking and sweets, with galettes being a luxurious butter pastry made using equal amounts of flour and butter. By blending this dough with the fragrant Uji matcha, we have achieved a unique flavor. The name of POUKA LLC is inspired by the image of home-made sweets made by a mother wearing a kappogi apron. Since its founding in 1983, the company has consistently adhered to the motto of not using any extraneous ingredients, maintaining this stance even during times when many products extensively used preservatives and flavoring agents. This philosophy remains unchanged even 40 years later.

MATCHA GARETTE was first created 25 years ago to be showcased at an event themed around the fusion of Japanese and Western cultures. At a time when the term “collaboration” was not yet recognized, this unique product was born through trial and error. With changes over the years, domestically produced wheat has become abundantly available, and we now use carefully selected raw materials. Notably, we use French fermented butter “Échiré.” Fermented butter, with its lactic acid fermentation, offers richer flavor and aroma than regular butter and harmonizes perfectly with matcha. MATCHA GARETTE is a soft butter cookie with a high butter content, where the distinctive fermented butter and matcha coexist beautifully.

To enjoy the product, remove it from the box and cut it into your preferred size with a knife. Because matcha changes color when exposed to ultraviolet light, we recommend storing it in a cool, dark place and consuming it promptly after opening.
