Organic Matcha

Matcha is a type of powdered green tea made from tea leaves (Camellia sinensis) specially grown in the shade, which increases their chlorophyll and amino acid content, especially L-theanine. After harvesting, the leaves are dried and slowly ground into a very fine powder. Unlike other infusions, with matcha, the whole leaf is consumed, which enhances its nutritional benefits.

Fine Nipona matcha is special because it comes from Japanese producers with ancient traditions. The entire product selection process is carried out by Japanese people directly involved in the company to ensure its authenticity. Furthermore, the product is finished and packaged directly at the matcha producer's facilities in Japan, which guarantees its freshness and purity, without subsequent manipulation, as is the case with other imported bulk products that are more competitive in price, but whose proper handling is unknown.

Matcha is rich in antioxidants, especially catechins like EGCG,which help combat cell damage and aging. It also promotesfocus and calmness thanks to L-theanine, improves metabolism, regulates blood sugar, and provides essential vitamins and minerals, whichtranslates into a stronger immune system and anti-inflammatory properties.

To prepare a cup of traditional matcha: Add 2 grams (approximately 1-2 teaspoons) of matcha to a bowl. Add about 60 ml of hot water (not boiling, ideally 80°C). Whisk with a bamboo whisk (chasen) in an "M" or "W" shape until a light foam forms on the surface. Enjoy!
