Born in the historic tea fields of Uji, Japan, Manten was founded by third-generation tea masters who saw modern life robbing people of simple, mindful moments of joy. They created this Goma Sablé to solve a specific problem: the lack of truly authentic, artisanal snacks that fit a discerning lifestyle. Every ingredient is a deliberate choice—single-origin Uji Matcha from a family-owned farm, stone-ground black sesame from Kagoshima, and European-style butter—selected for purity and tradition, not mass production. Each batch is crafted in a JAS-certified (Japanese Agricultural Standard) facility and undergoes 23-point quality checks. This commitment has made it the top-ranked artisanal cookie in its category for 3 consecutive years in Japan, chosen by those who refuse to compromise on taste or quality.

The Manten Uji Matcha Sesame Goma Sablé Cookies are crafted with a carefully selected blend of ingredients that contribute to their distinctive flavor, texture, and nutritional profile. The primary components include wheat flour, which serves as the structural base, providing the classic crumbly and tender texture characteristic of sablé cookies. High-quality Uji matcha powder is incorporated not only for its vibrant green hue but also for its rich, earthy flavor and antioxidant properties, derived from catechins like EGCG, which may support metabolism and cognitive function. Sesame seeds, both black and white, are added to impart a nutty, aromatic essence and a subtle crunch, while also offering beneficial nutrients such as healthy fats, protein, and minerals like calcium and iron. Sugar and butter are used to sweeten and enrich the dough, ensuring a delicate melt-in-the-mouth consistency and enhancing overall palatability. Additionally, ingredients like salt balance the sweetness and amplify other flavors, and leavening agents such as baking powder contribute to a light, airy texture. This artisanal snack combines traditional Japanese elements with modern snack appeal, offering a gourmet experience that is both indulgent and subtly health-conscious, making it an ideal choice for those seeking a unique, flavorful treat with potential wellness benefits.
