Ceremonial Matcha

Description

Ceremonial Matcha is the cream of the crop, literally. Whether you like your matcha in the traditional style, or as a matcha latte, we have you covered.

This single origin matcha is delectably smooth and delicious. You’ll know you have the best with your first sip!

Our matcha is shade grown approximately three weeks. Prior to processing, the stems and veins are removed and the tea leaves are ground into powdered form.

To prepare, mix matcha powder into water (traditionally done with a bamboo whisk). Because matcha consists of whole tea leaves, both nutrients—including chlorophyll, antioxidants, and vitamin content—and the caffeine content remain higher than infused teas. Matcha is the power punch of green tea!

While you might think drinking matcha is the only way to consume this healthy tea, there are endless ways to add it to your diet. Let our organic matcha shine in your smoothies, muffins, waffles, yogurt, and ice cream!

Storing your matcha is important. Minimize exposure to air and light. Keep the bag securely closed. We also recommend refrigerating your matcha for sustained quality and freshness.

The tea master who produces this matcha received the Top Tea Connoisseur award in Japan. This family-operated company bypasses the Japanese government tea auctions and purchases tea directly from the farmers. Thus tea farmers earn a higher price, and the manufacturer knows their tea source.

We offer four options of organic matcha:

• Mammoth Matcha – single origin, slight astringency
• Ceremonial Matcha – single origin, premium, absolute umami, no astringency
• Wild Strawberry Matcha – a matcha blend with flavor, fresh strawberry notes
• Honey Matcha – a matcha blend with honey, rounded sweet notes
