WHAT IS MATCHA?
Matcha is a finely ground, rich green tea powder made from the tencha plant. Matcha in Japanese means simply "ground tea".
Its name might be simple, but the production of the powder is a complicated and painstaking process. Only very few tea farmers understand the art of producing Matcha.
As tencha is a shade plant, the shrubs are covered with reeds four weeks before harvest. The reduction in sunlight causes the leaves to produce more chlorophyll which gives them their dark green colour, their high nutrient content and the typical, delicate, slightly sweet flavour.
After harvesting, the leaves are treated with steam and then dried.
For our Organic Matcha Tea only the most valuable parts of the plant are used; and the de-veined and de-stemmed leaves are ground to a green powder using traditional Japanese granite mills. It takes one hour to grind 30 grams of powder.
MATCHA - A SPECIAL TEA INDULGENCE
The Chinese have been drinking matcha for a very long time. The tea was also considered to be medicine; Buddhist monks drank it before meditating.
is one of the oldest teas in Japan and very popular to this day. The high-quality tea is prepared in a complex tea ceremony. A matcha bowl and bamboo whisk are needed for this.
