ORGANIC MATCHA POWDER

Matcha powder is a finely ground green tea powder derived from specially grown and processed green tea leaves. Known for its bright green color, it is traditionally used in the Japanese tea ceremony.

Matcha is made from tea leaves that are dwarfed before being harvested. This shadow process increases the chlorophyll content and gives the tea its bright green color. After harvesting, the tea leaves are steamed, dried and freed from stalks and veins. The remaining leaves, now called tencha, are ground into a fine powder known as matcha.

Matcha powder can be made into a tea by whipping it with hot water. It can also be added to smoothies, lattes, baked goods, or other recipes. Because it's highly concentrated, you usually only need half a teaspoon to one teaspoon per serving.

Matcha powder is suitable for anyone looking to reap the health benefits of green tea, especially those looking for an energy boost without the side effects of caffeine.

Antioxidant Properties: Matcha is high in catechins, particularly EGCG, which are known to be powerful antioxidants.
Energy and Clarity: Matcha contains caffeine, but unlike coffee, it offers a "calm" energy without the typical caffeine "high" and ensuing "crash".
Metabolism Boost: It can boost metabolism and help burn fat.
Calming effect: Matcha contains L-Theanine, an amino acid that helps to relax and balances the effects of caffeine.
