Matcha
Matcha is a distinguished powdered green tea from Japan, celebrated for its vibrant color, unique creamy texture, and rich, earthy flavor. It is made from shade-grown tea leaves, which are then steamed, dried, and ground into a fine powder, allowing drinkers to consume the whole leaf. This process not only contributes to matcha’s intense flavor and nutritional benefits, including high levels of antioxidants and amino acids, but also to its cultural significance in Japanese tea ceremonies. With its combination of health benefits and energizing properties, matcha offers a unique and holistic tea-drinking experience.
Description
Matcha is a finely ground, powdered green tea that has been an integral part of Japanese culture and ceremonies for centuries. Unlike other teas that are infused and then discarded, involves consuming the whole tea leaf in powdered form, offering a more intense and comprehensive experience of green tea’s health benefits. The production is a meticulous process that begins with the shading of tea bushes for several weeks before harvest, which boosts chlorophyll levels and enhances the vibrant green color and amino acid content of the leaves. After harvesting, only the finest tea leaves are selected, steamed to halt oxidation, and then carefully dried. The dried leaves, now called tencha, are slowly ground into a fine powder using traditional stone mills, a process that can take up to an hour to produce just 30 grams of matcha, preserving its delicate flavor and nutrient-rich profile. Matcha boasts a unique, rich flavor that is both earthy and slightly sweet, with a creamy texture and a vibrant, emerald-green color when whisked with water. Its taste is deeply influenced by the quality of the tea, with ceremonial-grade matcha offering a more refined flavor compared to culinary-grade matcha, which is used in cooking and baking for Direct Sourcing from India Please Visit
