Health Benefits

• High in EGCG - Matcha is high in a unique component known as EGCG, or epigallocatechin gallate. EGCG is a specific type of catechin that has been studied for its beneficial effects.
• Boosts energy - Matcha is high in caffeine, which can give you the boost of energy you need to get things done, without any of the jitters and crash of coffee.
• Reduces stress - Matcha contains l-theanine, a unique component that can help to reduce stress and anxiety and promote rest.
• Improves cognitive function - The caffeine and l-theanine present in matcha work together to help boost your brainpower and improve cognitive function. Caffeine energizes while l-theanine calms, and when combined it can help you to focus on cognitively demanding tasks, study, and more.
• Good for your teeth - Matcha is great for your teeth and overall oral health and contains flavonoids that work to reduce inflammation, maintain healthy gums, and limit the growth of bacteria in your mouth.
• Good for your metabolism -Matcha can help to boost your metabolism and help you maintain a healthy weight.
• High in antioxidants - Because it’s so concentrated, matcha contains even more beneficial antioxidants than other types of tea.
• Good for your heart - Drinking matcha can help to lower your risk of cardiovascular disease, and can reduce the risk of heart attacks and strokes. This is because of the beneficial flavonoids present in green tea.
• Improves longevity - Some studies show that drinking green teas like matcha is linked to increased longevity.
• Good for your skin - Consuming matcha has benefits for your skin, thanks to the presence of EGCG. Matcha has been shown to protect your skin against harmful UV rays.
• Boosts your immune system - Matcha contains beneficial polyphenols known as catechins that can help to boost your immune system and ward off illnesses like colds and the flu. Green tea also has antimicrobial properties that can help to prevent infection.
• Reduces inflammation - Matcha contains anti-inflammatory properties that can help to soothe pain and reduce inflammation.
• Good for digestion - Drinking matcha can help to aid digestion and prevent gastrointestinal disorders thanks to its abundant polyphenols.

Tasting Notes

This grade of matcha has a bolder, more robust flavour and more bitter notes as compared to ceremonial grade matcha. It is slightly less vibrant green than ceremonial grade matcha but the colour and flavour when blended into recipes shines through other complementary ingredients.

Storage Instructions

Matcha should either be stored in the freezer, if you plan on not opening it for a while, or in the fridge, once it’s opened. In both cases, store in an air-tight container away from light. Improper storage can affect the vibrancy, colour, and taste of Matcha.
