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 to use in the Japanese tea ceremony.

This premium grade matcha is vibrant green in color with a smooth, refreshing, slightly sweet and mildly rich flavor, with a silky texture. It makes a delicious tea!

Matcha Green Tea Powder: A Taste of Heaven

Matcha green tea powder is a finely ground powder of ceremonial-grade green tea leaves. It is made by shading the tea plants for several weeks before harvest, which increases the chlorophyll content and gives the tea a vibrant green color. The leaves are then harvested and stone-ground into a fine powder.

Matcha green tea powder is a unique and delicious beverage that has been enjoyed in Japan for centuries. It has a slightly sweet and earthy flavor, and a smooth and creamy texture. Matcha is also a good source of antioxidants and other nutrients.

Here are just a few of the benefits of matcha green tea:

Boosts metabolism and aids in weight loss. Matcha green tea contains catechins, which are antioxidants that have been shown to boost metabolism and promote weight loss.

Improves heart health. Matcha green tea contains antioxidants that can help to lower cholesterol levels and improve blood pressure.

Reduces inflammation. Matcha green tea contains anti-inflammatory compounds that can help to reduce inflammation throughout the body.

Promotes relaxation and stress relief. Matcha green tea contains L-theanine, an amino acid that has been shown to promote relaxation and reduce stress.

Improves cognitive function. Matcha green tea contains caffeine, which can help to improve alertness and focus.

Matcha green tea powder can be enjoyed in a variety of ways. It can be whisked with hot water to make a traditional matcha latte, or it can be added to smoothies, yogurt, and other food dishes. Matcha green tea powder can also be used to make delicious desserts and other baked goods.

Here are a few tips for making a perfect matcha latte:

  1. Add 1/2 teaspoon of matcha green tea powder to a bowl or mug.
  2. Add a small amount of hot water (about 2 tablespoons) and whisk until the matcha is dissolved and there are no clumps.
  3. Add more hot water (about 8 ounces) and whisk until the matcha is frothy.
  4. Enjoy!

You can also add milk or cream to your matcha latte for a richer flavor. You can also add other ingredients, such as honey, vanilla extract, or spices.

Matcha green tea powder is a delicious and healthy beverage that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. Try it today and experience the difference it can make in your diet and overall health.

To prepare matcha green tea powder for a Japanese tea ceremony, you will need the following:

A matcha bowl (chawan)

A matcha whisk (chasen)

A bamboo scoop (chashaku)

A hot water kettle

A strainer (optional)

Instructions:

  1. Warm the matcha bowl by rinsing it with hot water and then drying it with a clean towel.
  2. Use the chashaku to measure two scoops of matcha powder and place it in the matcha bowl.
  3. Add a small amount of hot water (about 2 tablespoons) to the matcha powder and whisk until it is dissolved and there are no clumps.
  4. Add more hot water (about 8 ounces) and whisk until the matcha is frothy.
  5. Serve the matcha immediately and enjoy!

Tips:

Use filtered or bottled water for the best flavor.

The water temperature should be between 175 and 185 degrees Fahrenheit.

If you don't have a chasen, you can use a regular whisk, but it may not produce as frothy of a matcha.

If you want to remove any clumps from the matcha, you can use a strainer.

Matcha is traditionally served without any milk or sugar, but you can add it to your taste if you prefer.

Japanese Tea Ceremony Etiquette:

When participating in a Japanese tea ceremony, there are a few etiquette tips to keep in mind:

Bow to the host when you enter the tea room.

Sit on the tatami mat in the seiza position (kneeling on your heels).

Admire the tea bowl and other utensils.

Accept the matcha with both hands and thank the host.

Take a small sip of the matcha and savor the flavor.

Wipe the rim of the tea bowl with a tissue before returning it to the host.
