Green Foods Matcha Green Tea Energy Blend - 5.5 oz
Overview
Green Foods Matcha Green Tea is a ceremonial-grade organic matcha powder, organically grown and hand-picked in its native Japan and prized for its delicate flavor and sweet aroma. It is specially cultivated for a vivid green color, velvety-soft texture, and exceptional taste and aroma.
Matcha takes its name from the Japanese words ma, meaning powder, and cha, meaning tea. This stone-ground green tea traces back centuries in East Asia, where tea drinking evolved into a treasured ritual and an enduring part of Japanese culture. Today, matcha is celebrated around the world for its rich flavor and the calm, focused ritual of preparing it.
Unlike green teas that use only part of the leaf, this matcha is made from the whole leaf. Grown by local farmers using traditional methods more than eight centuries old, the plants are shade-grown to deepen their chlorophyll and bright green color, then picked by hand with coarse stems and fibers carefully removed.
