Why drink matcha?

A source of youthfulness and beauty, a metabolism-boosting ally, anti-stress, tonic without the harmful effects of coffee, Matcha Green Tea seems to tick all the boxes of a perfect drink.

Rich in antioxidants, this Green Tea is considered a superfood. It comes in the form of a silky powder with a beautiful green color.

Obtained from the dried leaves of the Camellia sinensis tea plant, its health benefits have been the subject of numerous scientific studies.

What is matcha powder?

Matcha is a form of powdered green tea produced from tea leaves that are briefly steamed after harvest, dried and then traditionally ground in a granite mill.

The traditional way of growing Japanese green tea is to cover the tea plants to protect the leaves from direct sunlight for most of the growing period.

Only high quality young tea leaves are selected and steaming is done immediately to prevent oxidation.

This process allows the plant to produce higher amounts of amino acids and bioactive compounds such as chlorophyll and theanine, giving Matcha Tea its characteristic intense green color and taste without bitterness.

Contraindications

Not recommended for pregnant or breastfeeding people.

People who regularly take medications such as anticoagulants, hypertension and hypercholesterolemia should only consume matcha tea under the advice and supervision of a doctor
