Matcha is a fine green tea powder filled with vitamins, minerals & loaded with antioxidants. Matcha offers interesting medicinal properties, first of all it has assists strengthening our metabolism & our immune system thanks to its content of Vitamin A, C, E, polyphenols, catechins & many trace elements such as iron which may help our defence system. Unlike other green teas, matcha is an excellent source of antioxidants including EGCG (epigalocathechin gallate) & contains 137 times more than classic green teas. This is due to the extraction procedure which differentiates it from an infusion of a classic green tea.

Matcha’s grassy, umami flavour can be an acquired taste. If you’re new to making it, don’t hesitate to add a few drops of maple syrup or honey.
N.B. You might want a matcha whisk. If you make matcha often, I recommend investing in a bamboo whisk called a chasen. Its special design breaks up clumps and creates a frothy layer of foam on top of the tea. If you don’t have one, use a regular whisk or an electric milk frother instead. Whisking or stirring with a fork or spoon will not work here.
Care Instructions:
We recommend buying it in small quantities and storing it in the fridge to preserve freshness.
