Made from the highest quality, organic Gyokuro green tea our Matcha is subtly sweet, with a soft creamy texture and a savory finish. We only have a limited quantity of this especially delicious Matcha so don’t wait to try this particularly wonderful offering.
Matcha is 100% green tea leaves, ground to a fine powder. Like all tea, matcha comes from the tea plant, but what makes matcha so special is that it’s grown under shade for two weeks before plucking. This causes the tea plant to go into “overdrive” and produce high amounts of chlorophyll (the bright green stuff that contains all the nutrients). The tea is then ground by granite stones to form a very fine powder so when you drink it you ingest all of the leaf and all of it’s nutrients. This makes it very, very healthy. Matcha also provides a slow release of energy for up to six hours which helps keep you alert and focused.
