Japanese Matcha Green Tea Organic

This exceptional Matcha green tea, which literally translates as “powdered tea” in Japanese, is a Grand Cru tea grown in the shade in Japan among many of the world’s most sought-after and refined teas.

The leaves of this Matcha Green Tea have exceptionally soft and smooth notes, translated as "umami" in Japanese. This is achieved using a traditional technique which consists of protecting tea plants from the sun with shade shelters a few weeks before picking them. This Grand Cru tea has a stunning emerald green colour and a rich, herbal taste. Round in the palate and with a very subtle hint of bitterness, just one sip of this velvety tea is sure to leave you wanting more.

Preparation method:

Prepare the tea using a traditional Matcha whisk made from bamboo

This Grand Cru tea is in powder form and must be whisked rather than infused.

- Sieve 1g of Match tea powder, then pour in 80ml of water heated to 80°C.

- Whisk the tea briskly using a “W” movement for around 30 seconds with a small bamboo whisk until a light froth appears on the surface
