Story of this tea:

Our Premium Matcha Powder is brighter green and more smooth than the low-quality, commodity culinary matcha powders sold on Amazon and big tea stores. While our Matcha Powder is not rated "ceremony" grade, it is compatible for most uses at 1/4 THE COST!

This is the same matcha used by several popular coffee shops in the Santa Barbara area.

The small farm this tea is grown on does not use any pesticides or chemical fertilizers! It is organically grown but regulations do not allow us to make an organic certification claim without paying extra $ for a USDA certification... we choose to not spend money for a piece of paper and would rather pass the savings on to you.

The tea bushes are carefully grown on a cool, insect-resistant tea farm in the mountains at an altitude of 300 to 500 meters. High quality green tea leaves are carefully selected, steamed, dried and ground to an extremely fine powder.

Our Premium Matcha Powder has a high umami profile, and medium-low astringency. This is good news for the tea lover looking for a slightly richer, more full bodied taste required to make an exceptional matcha latte or smoothie.

👉 Matcha Japanese, from matsu ‘to rub’ + cha ‘tea’, from Chinese ( Mandarin dialect) chá.

Our Premium Matcha Powder is produced using only the finest leaves on the plant to ensure high quality, nutritionally rich, great tasting matcha. A few weeks prior to the harvest date, the tea bushes are covered with shade to slow down their growth. After the leaves are harvested, the stems and veins are removed and the leaves are steamed to stop oxidation. At this point, the leaves are called tencha. Tencha is then stored at 41F (5C). The cold-storage process increases the sweetness and umami of the leaves, and reduces bitterness and astringency.

We've priced our Matcha Powder so that you are comfortable using it freely for smoothies, latte's, baking, and other delicious concoctions.

The extraordinary health benefits of matcha green tea are well documented and are readily accessible across the internet.

Enjoy this super invigorating, incredibly healthy, and uniquely delicious tea every day!

Premium Matcha Powder is shipped to you in it's own hermetically sealed, reusable pouch.
