Matcha Tea Powder, Ceremonial Grade, Organic
About our Matcha Tea Powder, Ceremonial Grade, Organic
Size: 1 oz
Sipped for centuries in the traditional Japanese tea ceremony, ceremonial-grade matcha is the highest-quality green tea powder available. It is made from the youngest shade-grown tea leaves, with the stems and veins entirely removed. The leaves are stone-ground, which makes the matcha suitable for a thick-style tea. It is the perfect choice for the Japanese tea ceremony.
This premium-grade matcha is vibrant green, with a smooth, refreshing, slightly sweet, and mildly rich flavor and a silky texture. It makes a delicious tea!
Matcha Tea is traditionally prepared in a matcha bowl, using both a bamboo spoon and a whisk.
