WHAT IS MATCHA? Matcha is a finely ground powder from shade-grown Camellia sinensis green tea leaves, rich in antioxidants like EGCG and L-theanine. Providing sustained energy and focus, matcha is added to teas, lattes, smoothies, and baked goods for a nutrient-rich boost. Matcha naturally contains a moderate amount of caffeine. EXPLAIN MATCHA GRADES?
AAAAA: This is some of the highest quality, higher than traditional ceremonial grade, made from the youngest, shade-grown leaves, resulting in a vibrant green colour, delicate flavour, and high nutrient content, ideal for traditional tea ceremonies. If authentic, it's universally extremely expensive.
AAA Grade: Premium Grade Matcha, often considered comparible, or a small step below ceremonial, made from first harvest, shade grown, hand-picked leaves, offering a rich and smooth flavour with excellent nutritional value.
AA Grade: A blend of first and second harvest leaves, with a more robust flavour, suitable for lattes, smoothies, and recipes.
A Grade (Culinary Grade): A lower grade, often used for baking, smoothies, or as a base for matcha drinks, offering a bolder, less nuanced flavour compared to higher grades.
