Matcha has indeed gained a lot of popularity in recent years, not least because of the special way it is produced. It is made from the leaves of Camellia sinensis, the green tea plant. These plants are grown in the shade for three to four weeks, leading to increased production of theanine and caffeine, as well as amino acids and chlorophyll, all of which contribute to matcha’s health benefits.

After harvesting, the leaves are processed into 100% organic matcha powder by removing the stems and veins. The result is a versatile product that can be offered as loose tea, in sachets, or as a concentrated powder. Because of this concentrated form, organic matcha powder contains an abundance of antioxidants, caffeine, theanine, minerals and amino acids, making it a highly nutritious choice.
