WHAT IS

MATCHA

Matcha powder is simply green tea leaves stone ground into a fine powdered form. The actual leaves are the same as the regular green tea leaves you know and love, but the preparation and method of consumption is different giving you a whole lot of extra benefits. While regular green tea drinkers brew the leaves in hot water and then consume only the water (later throwing out the tea leaves), matcha drinkers dissolve the whole leaf in water therefore reaping more potent benefits. Matcha tea bushes are also grown under a special shade for three to four weeks allowing the levels of chlorophyll, caffeine and amino acids (like L-Theanine) to increase and the leaves to become a deeper shade of green.
