This popular tea does contain caffeine and is made from certified organic young green tea leaves. With a bright color and mildly sweet flavour, enjoy Match is hot and cold drinks, smoothies, baking, sauces, and more.
To make matcha it starts several weeks before harvest, when the tea bushes are covered to prevent direct sunlight. This slows down growth, turns the leaves a darker shade of green and causes the production of amino acids that make the resulting tea sweeter.
Only the best tea buds are hand picked. It can take up to one hour to grind 30 grams of matcha. The flavour of matcha is dominated by its amino acids. The highest grades of matcha have more sweetness and deeper flavour than the standard or coarser grades of tea harvested later in the year.
The leaves are traditionally dried outside in the shade and are never exposed to direct sunlight. However, these days, drying has mostly moved indoors.
Quality matcha is vibrantly green also as a result of this treatment.
Modern Western Use: used in coffees, teas, latte, smoothies, baking, flavouring for tempura, & sauces.
