What is Matcha?

Matcha is a 100% whole-leaf green tea from Japan, meticulously grown, gently dried and stone-ground into a bright green, unfermented powder. Because the entire unfermented leaf is ground and combined with hot water, consuming Matcha provides all the vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and amino acids inherent in the plant itself, while delivering a richly organic, full-bodied and deeply satisfying flavor profile not found in steeped teas. Matcha is made from the leaves of the tea plant Camellia Sinensis. What makes Matcha so special is the origin and production method of this green tea. The different ways in which green tea leaves are treated determine the quality of tea. There is only a small group of elite Japanese tea farmers that is capable of producing high-quality Matcha.

Tea plantations for Matcha look very different than other tea fields. Four weeks before harvest, Matcha plantations are covered with dark tarps. By doing this the tea plants receive 90% less sunlight. In order to compensate, tea plants intensively generate chlorophyll and the leaves produce large amounts of amino acids.
Matcha
Matcha Tea has an impressive history that goes back over a thousand years. Japanese monks who considered meditation important also realized the benefit of staying alert. They learned that Matcha Tea allowed them to be focused. A unique Amino Acid called L-Theanine has been proven to promote relaxation while keeping brain function stimulated. This amino acid is also believed to help memory and learning. The great news is that Matcha Tea has up to 5 times more L-Theanine Amino Acid than common black and green teas. This helps buffer the caffeine content and deliver amazing concentration and focus without the jitters of other caffeinated beverages.

Korean Matcha (Garucha)

Korean Matcha like Japanese Matcha is made from shade-grown green tea leaves. The preparation of Matcha starts several weeks before harvest, when the tea bushes are covered to prevent direct sunlight, slowing down growth. This results in Matcha rich in Chlorophyll and Theanine, giving it a rich flavour. Only the finest tea buds are hand-picked. It is 100% Organic Green Tea Leaves. The origin of this matcha is from the fertile land of Jeju Island in Korea. This organic green tea is produced with the modernized system with safety control system to ensure health of the green tea.

History

Matcha also known as maccha is a fine powder, it is the purest of green tea. Matcha became popular for the reason that it is used in Japanese tea ceremony, however, in modern times matcha became very famous because it is used to flavour different kind of foods and beverages such as ice cream, noodles and coffee. In Japanese cha means tea, and ma means powder, for that reason the word matcha translates literally as powdered green tea. The history stated that the very first green tea seeds were brought to Japan from China by the Zen Monk named Eisai way back in 1191 A.D. He actually planted them on the temple grounds in Kyoto. Hence Zen and matcha became inseparably bound together, in the form of the exquisite tea ceremony.
