①Beautiful skin
and Anti-Aging
Catechins, an ingredient contained in Matcha, is a component that forms tannins, which are the source of tea's umami and astringency. It is said to have the effect of suppressing fat, cholesterol, and active oxygen, which is said to lead to anti-aging.
Also, Matcha, which is made by crushing whole tea leaves, is also said to contain more kinds of vitamins than other teas, with vitamin E acting as a skin barrier, vitamin A moisturizing the skin, and vitamin C supporting beautiful skin.
②Building slim
and Healthy body
Matcha contains both insoluble and soluble dietary fiber,
with insoluble fiber stimulating the intestines and promoting bowel movements,
and soluble fiber increasing the number of good bacteria in the intestines.
Matcha, which is rich in both, can help you build a slim body in a healthy way.
③Inner Beauty,
Inner Health
It is said that catechin and tannins have germicidal and antibacterial functions. The traditional Japanese method of gargling with tea for "catching a cold" prevention technique may be connected to this saying.
Theanine, the component that gives tea its slight sweetness, is said to suppress brain excitement and relax the nerves.
Taking care of your inner body may help you get through stressful days more nicely.

Background Story
TOPKAPI ENTERTAINMENT (Vietnam) is directly operating Cafe 1/4 (Saryo Saigon) to communicate with our customers. Through our communications, we have received ample of wishes to enjoy Japanese Matcha. That is why, as a pure Japanese, tried to search and learn about various kinds of Matcha which is available in Japan and Vietnam.
There are many delicious Matcha but, at the same time, we found out that those are at too high price to enjoy Matcha in a daily basis.
Specially 100% Japanese origin Matcha does not have so much options and stocks in Vietnam. So, the price of those mostly stays high unfortunately. Due to this background, we see that the opportunity to enjoy 100% Japanese origin Matcha in Vietnam is limited, specially for daily-use.
On the other hand, in Vietnam, the recognition of "Matcha is a Super-Food" is increasing dramatically in this recent years. So, people in Vietnam often talk about the beauty and healthy effects of Matcha actually. In particular, Catechins, Theanine, Vitamins, and Dietary fiber, which are considered to be ingredients in matcha, are generally said that great for anti-aging, immunity improvement, beautiful skin support, and intestinal environment improvement support.

Topkapi-En Niwayama
Meaning of the Name
We declare here that we develop a group of products called "Tokapi-En" and approach out toward outside Japan, symbolizing that it is a group of products that have been enhanced as a TOPKAPI group originated in Japan.
As of the original Japanese Kanji letters, the reason why it is not a "園 (En)" that is commonly used, but is a "苑 (En)" is that, to express our the intention of not limiting ourselves to grow nature plants only such as tea gardens, but also to declare to enjoy contemplating about Matcha and its related stories with all of us including our customers.
This Brand Name "Niwayama" is with a wish that people not only in Japan but all over the world can enjoy the traditional and impressive assets of Japan, such as Matcha tea fields with Gardens (庭:Niwa) stretching throughout the Mountains (山:Yama), symbolizing majestic nature and scenery, we created the Matcha brand "Niwayama" as the first product of Topkapi-En.
