Summary

Encha Organic Ceremonial Matcha scores 55/100. USDA Organic, first-harvest, single-ingredient Japanese ceremonial matcha grown in Uji, Japan. Lead Safe Mama 3rd-party lab testing (April 2025) detected 60 ppb lead, 18 ppb cadmium, 18 ppb arsenic, and mercury below the 5 ppb detection threshold. Clean ingredient side, but lead at 60 ppb drags the score.

Contaminants 4

Source: Lead Safe Mama

Lead
60 ppb
High

A high level of lead — a significant sourcing/quality concern relative to what clean supply chains achieve.

Lead Safe Mama 3rd-party lab testing (April 2025) detected 60 ppb lead.

Cadmium
18 ppb
Trace

A trace amount of cadmium — within the range expected from normal soil uptake/processing and below our concern threshold.

Lead Safe Mama testing detected 18 ppb cadmium.

Arsenic
18 ppb
Low

A low level of arsenic — present but modest; a sourcing-quality note rather than a safety concern at typical intake.

Lead Safe Mama testing detected 18 ppb arsenic.

Mercury
<5 ppb
Not detected

Not detected — below the laboratory's detection limit. This is the strictest possible result: no measurable amount was found.

Lead Safe Mama 3rd-party lab testing (April 2025) reported mercury below the 5 ppb lab detection threshold. The lab explicitly notes there is NO safe level of mercury consumption — even a non-detect on a 5 ppb floor still represents possible trace exposure.
