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 matcha is crafted for traditional preparation and mindful daily rituals.

Ingredients: Fine Ground, Shade-grown Tencha Green Tea

Appearance: Bright, vibrant green due to high chlorophyll content.

Taste: Smooth, sweet, and slightly grassy with a creamy, nutty mouthfeel (never bitter).

Health Benefits: High levels of L-theanine (for calm focus) and antioxidants.

Suggested Preparation of Ceremonial Matcha:

Sift 1 teaspoon (1.5-2g) of matcha into a bowl.

Add 2–3 oz of hot, not boiling, water (around 175°F or 80°C).

Whisk vigorously in a "W" or "M" motion until a fine, creamy froth forms. Best prepared with a bamboo whisk (chasen) and bowl (chawan) as thin (usucha) or thick (koicha) tea.
