Organic Matcha shaded for 3 weeks - First flush

Biotona Bio Beginner's Matcha is a refined olive-colored green tea from Japan with a subtly bitter taste. It is exclusively produced from young tea leaves that are traditionally hand-picked in early May (first flush) after shading the bushes for 3 weeks. Beginner's Matcha is also very suitable for culinary use.

Ingredients:

Matcha green tea* (Camellia sinensis) (100%) from Japan. *organic cultivation

Directions:

To prepare matcha tea using the traditional method:

1. Boil water (preferably slightly hard and slightly mineralized). Let the water cool to around 80°C (e.g. by opening the lid of your electric kettle for 10 minutes or pouring it 4-5 times to lower the temperature).
2. Put 1 to 2 g of powdered tea (either 2 bamboo spoons or ½ teaspoon, according to your preference) in a bowl and cover with water (70-100 ml).
3. Whisk the tea for about 15 seconds with the small bamboo whisk until a good frothy mixture is obtained.

There are other ways to enjoy our tea powders. You can incorporate powdered tea in your favorite smoothie, in your hot drinks, when making ice cream, cakes, gourmet dishes, and even as a spice.

Store in a cool, dry place and away from light.
