Matcha has an intense flavor that is often described as vegetal, earthy and slightly sweet. Some people compare the taste of Matcha to spinach or steamed broccoli, but with a sweetness that balances the bitterness.
The taste of Matcha can vary depending on the quality of the tea leaves and how it is prepared. Poorer quality matcha can often taste bitter and have an aftertaste of 'hay'. It is therefore important to choose a high quality Matcha and go for what is called 'Ceremonial Grade Matcha' for the best taste and quality. Our Matcha is always Ceremonial Grade.
Due to its powder form, Matcha is incredibly versatile, and you can therefore both drink and eat the green superfood.
You can enjoy the tea as a traditional matcha tea with only matcha powder and hot water, or as a matcha latte with added milk. These are the most common ways to enjoy Matcha, but you can also use the green powder in smoothies, snacks, desserts and even main dishes. You can be inspired by our matcha recipes here
Matcha differs from other teas in several ways. First, Matcha is made from specially grown tea leaves that grow in the shade, which increases their chlorophyll content and makes them more nutritious.
Secondly, the tea leaves are ground into a fine powder which is mixed with hot water. This means that you consume the whole tea leaf when you drink Matcha, instead of just the extracted water. This provides a higher concentration of nutrients.
How much matcha powder you need for a cup depends on your personal taste and preferences. In general, we recommend using about 1/2 - 1 teaspoon of matcha powder per cup.
You can start with the lower dose and then add more if you want a stronger tea. It is a good idea to start with a small amount of Matcha and increase the amount until you find the perfect amount for your taste.
To store your Matcha as well as possible, you should follow these tips:
- Store Matcha in an airtight container with a tight-fitting lid.
- Avoid storing Matcha in direct sunlight or near a heat source, as this can damage the tea leaves and change the taste.
- Store Matcha in a cool, dark place, such as a drawer or cabinet.
- Use Matcha within 12 months of opening to ensure it still has the best taste and quality.
If you store your Matcha in this way, it will retain all the nutrients and its good taste.
