Matcha Dammann Japanese Green Tea

Matcha is not just a simple grinded green tea. Harvesting is done by hand to ensure the quality of the leaves. It is produced from Tencha: a shaded tea which was steamed, then dried. Veins and stems are removed in order to avoid excessive bitterness and maintain flavor and nutritional content. The leaves are then ground in granite mills to produce the green powder that is the raw material for Matcha tea. Matcha is a high quality variety of green tea in powder form. Preparation: pour the contents of your stick in a bowl - add 7 cl of hot water (≈ 80°C) - whisk vigorously until a thin foam appears on the surface.
