Collection: Matcha 抹茶

Matcha is a powdered tea that has had the water removed, and is usually consumed in hot water or used to make cakes and desserts. It is traditionally written in Chinese as "末茶", where "末" means "powder" or "crushed". The more common type of matcha is green tea, and the leaves are covered for three weeks before harvesting to produce more theanine and caffeine, and after harvesting they are steamed to give them a more emerald green color. The crushing process is best done with a natural stone mill.
