What is matcha

Matcha is powdered Japanese green tea. The tencha leaves are shade-grown before picking, then ground into a fine powder. You drink the whole ground leaf, not an infusion, which is why matcha has such a vivid colour and distinct taste.

Mild has three matchas. Matcha Daily (50 g) is the one for everyday lattes, hot or iced. Matcha Premium and Matcha Unique (30 g tins) come from the first spring harvest in Kagoshima and taste best whisked with just water using a chasen.

For one serving you need 1-2 g of matcha, 60-80 ml of water at 70-80°C and a chasen. You will find a step-by-step recipe on each matcha's page.
