## Description

Product description Organically grown and hand-picked in its native Japan, our Matcha is specially cultivated to achieve a bright green color, velvety soft texture, and the ultimate in both taste and aroma. SMALL FAMILY RAN FARMS IN JAPAN WHOLE-LEAF & SHADE GROWN ORGANIC & CEREMONIAL GRADE DISSOLVES IN COLD & HOT WATER What is Matcha? Green tea — and matcha specifically — is treasured over the world for its dynamic properties, many of which are now supported by science, as well as its phenomenal taste. Whereas many green teas contain only parts of the tea leaf, our matcha makes use of the entire leaf. Each plant is cultivated by local farmers in Japan, who take great pride in cultivating their crops using traditional methods that date back more than eight centuries. The plants are protected from sunlight, a practice that further boosts the tea’s chlorophyll levels, and the leaves are picked by hand, with coarse fibers, stems, and other debris quickly discarded. As the leaves are meticulously sorted, they’re also separated into grades. The prized “ceremonial grade” is reserved for the youngest and highest quality leaves. Those leaves are then ground using a stone mill until a uniquely shaped powder molecule emerges. The result? A mild, smooth, refined product that’s a pleasure to consume. Benefits of Drinking Matcha Green Tea • Antioxidants: One serving of our matcha green tea provides a wealth of antioxidants that protect the body against damaging free radicals, potentially strengthening your immune system in the process. Matcha is also the only source of a catechin called EGCG that may help minimize your risk for many conditions. • L-Theanine: This amino acid, which appears to act on neurotransmitters, is known for its ability to relax the mind and improve cognition, sleep, and mood. Rest and destress with a cup of matcha in the afternoon, use it to help focus on demanding mental tasks, or take inspiration from Buddhist monks and use it in support of your daily meditation. • Chlorophyll: Soak in this whole-leaf source of high-quality chlorophyll — Mother Nature’s prescription for gentle cleansing — and support your body’s innate mechanisms for eliminating harmful materials.

Review: Smooth taste & trusted ingredients! - I really love this brand of Matcha. I've tried dozens of brands looking for one that was not only organic and ceremonial, but also tasted good enough to drink regularly. This one ticks all 3 boxes. It's cleanly made, it has intention, it dissolves better than most in both cold and hot water so it blends well, and it has a smoooooth.. taste. Yes, it's matcha so it has a green grass taste as they all do, but this is gentle, not bitter and no lingering aftertaste. I really enjoy it. I find my energy is up, but I don't get jittery so that's a bonus. If you're looking for a healthy and delicious Matcha, this is the one.
Review: What a Bargain! - First off this is the value of the year for me! This Matcha is one of the best tasting I've had so far. My favorite was from Nana, but is no longer available and tried others but didn't like them. This tea has a hint of sweetness all by itself so I only have to add a pinch of honey for my liking. By itself with no sweetener the tea stands alone just fine....Highly recommended.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Exceptional quality for the price
*by S***. on September 6, 2021*

I've shopped around and tried many poor quality matchas. It seems like. the ceremonial grade is always too steep for my budget. This ceremonial grade is very smooth, generally a bright grass green if it's been stored properly. I recommend not bringing the water to a complete boil and scalding the matcha. It will cause it to turn a darker brownish color and will not taste as good or retain the nutrients. Just heat til it steams a bit and is like a bath that you made a little bit too hot to get in. I personally add almond milk and a touch of maple syrup to make a dairy free matcha latte. Also, so yourself a favor and buy one of the bamboo whisk matcha tea sets. I found one on amazon for $10 that's quality from Japan. It helps the matcha distribute much more evenly avoiding a lot of powder falling to the bottom.
