Collection: Ceremonial Matcha - Ground Green Tea Powder
This Ceremonial Matcha is sourced from the renowned Matsushita Tea Garden in Kakegawa City, Shizuoka, Japan. Harvested in spring from a blend of Saemidori and Tsuyuhikari cultivars, it is stone-milled into an ultra-fine, vibrant emerald powder. The cup opens with a smooth, creamy body and layers of buttery umami, balanced by a gentle natural sweetness. Refined and lingering, this ceremonial matcha is crafted for traditional preparation and mindful daily rituals.
To make traditional matcha, sift 2g (approx. 2 scoops or 1 tsp) of matcha powder into a bowl (chawan) and add 70-100ml of 175°F (80°C) water. Use a bamboo whisk (chasen) to vigorously mix in a zigzag or 'W' motion for 30 seconds, using your wrist, not your arm, to create a fine, frothy foam.
However, our high-quality matcha can also be enjoyed in less traditional and more main stream drinks as well. It has become increasingly popular in Western culture to enjoy matcha in iced or hot matcha lattes. These preparations provide the same benefits and flavor profile of traditional matcha, but in a trendy new style! An excellent way to embrace traditions with a modern twist.
