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.
