A Vibrant Ceremonial Experience

Matcha Tea is a pure expression of Rare Origin Japanese Green Tea. Crafted from carefully selected, shade-grown leaves, this premium Ceremonial-grade powder delivers a stunning emerald hue and a rich, creamy texture.

Renowned for its beautifully balanced umami-sweet flavor, this versatile powder is perfect for traditional tea ceremonies, as well as modern lattes and culinary creations. Whether whisked hot into a frothy bowl or enjoyed cold in a modern refreshment, it offers a smooth, vibrant palate that celebrates its authentic heritage.

Ingredients

Matcha Tea (100% Ceremonial-grade green tea powder) - a high-quality blend achieved through a traditional process called Gogumi in Japan.

Tasting Notes

Aroma: Fresh-cut grass with a hint of seaweed-sweet nuances; Liquor: A bright, jade green opaque liquid; Palate: Creamy umami enriched with subtle vegetal sweetness and a clean, refreshing finish.

Preparation Guide

Sift 1–2 tsp into a bowl to ensure a fine, clump-free powder. Add 60–80 ml of water heated to 75 °C, and whisk vigorously in an “M” or “W” motion until a frothy consistency develops. For a lighter usucha, use 1 tsp; for a richer, thicker koicha, use 2 tsp with a reduced amount of water. This careful preparation maximizes flavor and offers a uniquely satisfying Matcha experience.

Product FAQ

Q. What distinguishes ceremonial-grade matcha from culinary-grade?

A. Ceremonial-grade matcha is made from the youngest, shade-grown leaves, stone-ground to a fine powder—resulting in a smoother, more vibrant flavor and color. Culinary-grade uses slightly older leaves and has a stronger, more astringent taste, better suited for cooking and baking.

Q. How much caffeine is in a cup of matcha?

A. One teaspoon (~2 g) of matcha contains about 35 mg of caffeine—roughly half a typical coffee—delivered over several hours for sustained alertness without jitters.

Q. Why whisk matcha instead of steeping?

A. Whisking suspends the powder in water, fully extracting flavor, antioxidants, and L-theanine. Steeping would leave most of the nutrients undissolved in the leaves.

Q. What’s the best water temperature for matcha?

A. Aim for 70–80 °C (just below boiling). Too-hot water scorches the powder, causing bitterness; cooler water preserves matcha’s sweetness and umami profile.

Q. Can I reuse matcha powder?

A. No—matcha is fully consumed when whisked into water; there’s no leaf residue to re-brew.

Q. How should I store matcha to maintain freshness?

A. Keep in an airtight, opaque tin in the refrigerator or a cool, dark cupboard. Use within 4–6 weeks of opening to enjoy its brightest color and flavor.
