Great Taste Award

"Soft seaweed notes with a silky mouth feel and a really pleasing green tea bitterness development. A very good matcha, a tad more bitter than the finest, but very good."

Frequently Asked Questions

What are the different grades of Matcha?

Growing conditions, time of harvest and processing techniques have a direct effect on the grade and final flavour of the Matcha:

Ceremonial grade Matcha uses the finest, smallest shade grown leaves from the very tip of the tea bush - giving it a very vibrant green colour and a slightly sweet, smooth flavour.

Premium grade Matcha is ideal for both drinking and home baking, can add unique flavour and incredible colour to food and drink recipes.

Basic grade Matcha is slightly bitter, less expensive and is generally only used for cooking.

How much caffeine does Matcha contain?

Based on data provided by the Standard Tables of Food Composition in Japan (2015) for finely ground Matcha tea, 1g (as a dry powder) would contain approximately 32mg of caffeine.

This matcha is absolutely delicious, specially drunk as a latte. Highly recommended.

Very Tasty - Try using a milk frother if you're lazy!

Probably a bit pricey if you want to drink a LOT of matcha - I found using two sachets for one small mug was a perfect concentration - but if you're only going to have it occasionally, this will keep it much fresher, most likely.

Also of note, I'm too lazy to whisk, but putting this in a cappuccino maker / milk frother with either water (for something very similar to traditional matcha) or almond milk (for a matcha latte) works *perfectly*. I haven't tried with actual milk yet, as I was out while I still had the sachets, but intend to try that with the ceremonial grade powder I've ordered when it arrives.

I have tried many matcha teas, and this is without doubt the best I have tasted. Would highly recommend. It is so convenient having the tea in 'shot' size servings.
