Bio Matcha Tea Traditional 10g
Matcha is grounded green tea in its purest form, but contains more secondary plant substances ( color, fragrance, and flavor) and is therefore better than conventional green tea.
What makes Matcha powder so healthy is the high content of healthy antioxidants that support the immune system and have anti-aging benefits. Because unlike green tea, where the tea leaves are only brewed in hot water, with matcha you drink the whole grounded tea leaves. This explains the more intensive taste of Matcha.

The ground green tea in Ceremonial Grade is grown in Uji, Japan. The region is known for its clean water and nutrient-rich soil, free from pesticides. The leaves of the Tencha tea are hand-picked here, gently steamed, and then ground with granite stones.
Our organic certified Matcha impresses with its almost neon green color, its sweet, creamy umami flavor - free from any bitterness!
Note: Please store in a cool and dry place!
Our organic matcha has a premium quality, which means that the leaves are from the very first harvest in spring. These are particularly mild in taste and have a better quality (taste and color) from all later harvest of the year.
Another big difference in quality is that the leaves are harvested and processed by hand. Hardly any machines are used in the harvest of our Matcha. The first leaves are picked by hand, gently steamed and grinded with granite stones. The cultivation is done without the use of pesticides. Annual soil samples and laboratory tests focusing on the heavy metal and radiation exposure are executed to ensure the best possible quality. In addition, each batch is carefully checked on its mineral properties. Our quality is confirmed by strict standards of the organic certification of the Japanese certification body JONA and the German organic certification.
