Product Information

I'm a bit of a matcha addict, so although I use it often I do find it lasts very well and is absolutely good value for money. The most common style of matcha tea is usucha, or "thin tea." To make usucha, scoop 1 teaspoon of matcha powder into a bowl. Next, heat water to 176 degrees and pour 2 to 4 ounces over the matcha powder. Use a matcha whisk, also called a Chasen, to blend the water and matcha powder; briskly whisk in a "W" or "M" pattern for around 20 seconds until the matcha has evenly dissolved. From there the tea is ready to drink. You can add a creamer or more water as well as sweeteners like honey and sugar to suit your taste. I started the juices a few days before this arrived, when I added it to my juices in the morning and for lunch I did notice an increase in my energy levels the same day. I wasn't suddenly running a sub 3 hour marathon of an evening but it was noticeable.

It's become increasingly common in recent years to come across coffee mixed with mushrooms—or, more specifically, with compounds extracted from mushrooms, known as adaptogens. The same is true with matcha. The thousand-year-old green tea pairs well with apoptogenic mushrooms as both have a naturally earthy taste.I also haven’t found it to make me queasy when I drink it on an empty stomach as can happen occasionally with sencha green tea. Each jar you get contains 50 grams of pure matcha powder, so if you just consume the recommended 1 or 2 cups per day using 1/2 teaspoon per cup, it’ll last you quite a while.

The Matcha Konomi powder is organic, stone-ground, and harvested from the heralded Uji region of Japan. Michelle Puyane, co-founder of Chalait says Uji match "tends to have more depth to the flavor; it can be very savory. The other two popular regions are Kagoshima, which might be grassier and have a lighter flavor, and Shizuoka, which is milder, not leaning one way or the other." If your country is not in the EU your goods will be marked as a gift. For most countries there should be no custom charges your end.Matcha naturally contains caffeine, so the vast majority of matcha powders are caffeinated. Some brands sell decaf matcha, but it's uncommon. A serving of matcha contains 40 to 70 milligrams of caffeine on average. And finally, we come to our number one choice – the organic Matcha Green Tea Powder from Teaologists, sourced from leaves grown in Uji, Kyoto. In terms of colour, this is the best one we’ve seen on the market, with an almost neon green appearance and an intense flavour to match. There is no shortage of matcha latte mixes, but Encha considers itself the only company "offering a latte grade using first harvest pure and organic matcha powder." Essentially, other latte mixes tend to contain later-season matcha made from tougher, more bitter leaves, leading to an earthier taste, but this mix is filled with the good stuff.

Purechimp matcha stands out due to its vibrant green color, smooth texture, and distinctive taste. Its high-quality, shade-grown tea leaves result in a rich, umami flavor profile that sets it apart from lower-grade matcha products. Additionally, the company's commitment to ethical sourcing and sustainable practices further elevates its appeal among conscious consumers. PureChimp Matcha comes from high-quality Japanese green tea leaves [japanese Matcha] ground into powder form, making it easier to drink than traditional steeped tea leaves. What makes PureChimp matcha unique is the fact that they offer ceremonial grade matcha in several different flavor varieties such as; mint, cinnamon, lemon, and more.

This green-hued delicacy from Japan has migrated across the seas and taken over the UK. Hailed as one of the best superfoods that money can buy, the list of benefits from ingesting matcha is long, to say the least. Whizz it up in a smoothie, incorporate it into your baking recipes, or drink it straight up as a latte, iced latte or green tea. There are multiple ways you can add matcha to your diet. Due to a brief harvest season, select growing regions, and the effort it takes to cultivate and grind green tea leaves, matcha powder is pricey, especially compared to coffee and tea. The price point has a high floor, and if you come across a brand selling ceremonial matcha far below other competitors it should raise some eyebrows regarding the quality. However, Chamberlain Coffee manages to sell its ceremonial matcha powder in the lowest average price tier without sacrificing quality. It doesn't have the rich umami flavor of high-end matcha powders, but it has a balance of sweetness and earthiness, and it blends well.
