What Is Matcha Tea

Combien the high cost of producing matcha tea with matcha's recent rise in popularity globally and it's no surprise that many products are trying to associate themselves with matcha tea. However, to be a true matcha three main criteria must be met:

• Must be grown and processed in Japan
• Must only use tench leaves
• Must be grown in shade for the final weeks before harvesting

Matcha is a fine powder of specially grown tencha, green tea leaves. Green tea for matcha is grown in the shade for up to three weeks before it is harvested, enabling the plant to develop higher levels of chlorophyll, caffeine and theanine.
