Organic Ceremonial Matcha Tea Powder 1.76 oz (50 g) / Great Taste 2018 winner

Description

Star of the traditional Japanese tea ceremony, matcha is composed of green tea leaves that are shade grown before harvesting, de-stemmed and de-veined, and ground into a fine powder. Matcha can then be mixed into hot water to make an intensely flavorful tea with a creamy consistency or used in desserts to add color and a pleasing bittersweetness. Our 100 organic matcha is sourced directly from Japan, specifically from fields nestled in the mountains surrounding the Kirishima District of northern Kagoshima Prefecture where temperature conditions nurture tea leaves with superior aroma and flavor. As part of the UKs Great Taste Awards in 2018, over 500 food critics, chefs, restaurateurs, producers, and food writers, awarded Tokyo Matcha Selection Ceremonial Grade Japanese Organic Matcha two stars-a coveted mark of distinction.
