Our premium Izu Green Matcha is an excellent high quality daily Matcha. Has a creamy taste with a light astringent finish.
It is made using pure luxury tencha green tea and Gyokuro leaves that have been shaded under special shade covers for 3 weeks before plucking. Shading forces the plants to produce higher than normal chlorophyll levels, giving the leaves a rich green color. Once plucked, the leaves are steamed and dried. Next, they are stripped of all stems and veins, resulting in a pure leaf that is stone-ground into the fine powder tea lovers are familiar with.
This amazing Matcha is blended with a high altitude Western Kenyan tea with 3 times the antioxidant value of regular green tea. The antioxidants are significantly boosted without altering the flavory green character and bright green appearance
