Matcha
Organic matcha from gyokuro leaves
Matcha (抹茶) is whole green tea leaf, stone-ground to a fine powder. Ours is made from the same premium gyokuro leaves as our loose leaf, so you drink the whole leaf, not just an infusion of it.
Whole leaf
The whole leaf, in every cup
Most green tea is steeped and the leaves discarded. With matcha the leaf itself is ground to powder and whisked into the water, so you take in everything it holds, not just what steeps out.
That's why matcha is so concentrated in vitamins, minerals and catechin antioxidants, and why a little goes a long way.
Whisk it
Sift a teaspoon into a bowl, add hot (not boiling) water, and whisk until frothy, the way it's served in the Japanese tea ceremony.
Blend it
Stir into lattes and smoothies, or fold through baking and desserts. It brings colour, a gentle lift and a clean, grassy sweetness.
Fresh & small-batch
Ground in small batches from Sakamotoen's own leaves to protect the colour, aroma and nutrition that fade in mass-produced powders.
