DETAILS INGREDIENTS
 

Organic Matcha Tea: The Organic Matcha Tea is a creamy and rich cup with a distinct earthy flavor. Matcha comes from the Camellia sinensis herb, just like green tea. However, it has evolved differently and has a special nutrient profile. The organic Matcha has a very springtime and grassy flavor and its anti-oxidant properties give you a brew that refreshes and cleanses the system. It has a smooth character and can be coupled very well with sweet and savory foods. The brew has a heady flavor and is full-bodied. Its rich green taste has a very slight bitterness that only lends an interesting twist to its character.

Origin of Organic Matcha tea

Traditionally consumed in East Asia, Matcha is finely ground powder of specially grown and processed green tea leaves. Matcha history in Japan is said to begin in the 12th century when Zen monk Eisai brought tea seeds that he gathered on a trip to China. However it is believed that Buddhist Monks Saichō had already brought tea seeds from China in the 8-9th Century, but at that time tea was processed into solid cubical brick and not in powdered or liquid form. At that time, the powdered form of tea was only popular at Chinese Chan monasteries and was well-regarded for its revitalizing and healing benefits. Eisai also wrote a book titled ‘Kissa Yōjōki’ which translates as ‘Drinking Tea for Health’ explaining the numerous health benefits that can be gained from consuming tea.

Modern-day uses of Matcha

In modern days, matcha is often used to flavor and color products such as green tea ice cream, soba noodles, matcha lattes, and even desserts appearing everywhere from tea shops, health stores, and coffee shops. While the consumption of matcha is gradually declining in Japan, it is gaining rapid popularity in the West. Matcha typically has a higher level of caffeine and antioxidants than is generally present in green tea as it includes nutrients from the entire tea leaf. Matcha and its components have been shown to have a variety of benefits, showing that it can help protect the liver, promote heart health, and even help with weight loss.
