- Leslie BurchCo-FounderHowdy and welcome to our tea family! Austin is our home base, but our story is shaped by years of global adventure; from raising our two daughters across the globe to living in Seoul for nearly a decade, soaking up tea culture in London, and sourcing directly in Japan. Through it all, tea captured my American heart. Howdy Matcha was born out of that long-held passion, bringing authentic Japanese green tea traditions into a vibrant, modern light. With years of experience as an educator and business owner, I approach every wedding with meticulous organization, clear communication, and an eye for beautiful presentation. I adore visual design, fine details, and celebrations — which makes collaborating with couples the most rewarding aspect of what we do. My favorite part of the process is styling consultation. With 15 single cultivars and blends to choose from (plus our roasted hojicha), I love helping couples curate the perfect pairing — matching our tin artwork and colorways to your florals, linens, and reception aesthetic so your favors look stunning on the table and taste extraordinary in the cup. We can't wait to help you share a meaningful, memorable ritual with the people you cherish most!
- Taylor AanensonCo-FounderWelcome! As co-founder of Howdy Matcha alongside my sister, I bring both a software engineer’s eye for smooth logistics and a very fresh newlywed perspective to our team. My wife and I planned our Austin wedding from the ground up just over a year ago (that’s us celebrating in the photo!), so I deeply understand wanting wedding details that feel elevated and stress-free. Beyond coding our website, co-designing the brand, and sourcing in Japan, I also personally taste-tested over 70 matcha samples to help build our collection. Today, we offer 15 carefully sourced matcha blends and cultivars (plus hojicha), paired with a wide variety of beautifully illustrated, ready-to-order cans. My favorite part of working with couples is helping them navigate our catalog to find the exact combination of tin artwork and flavor profile that fits their wedding palette, table decor, and overall vibe. (And take it from me: the grooms and groomsmen appreciate a clean, high-grade caffeine ritual just as much as anyone!) We’re excited to help you select a memorable favor for your celebration—reach out anytime!
