Matcha Green Tea – the only form of tea in which the entire leaf is used – is made from hand-harvested Green Tea leaves which are shaded during the final weeks of harvest, allowing new tea shoots to develop. These shoots produce long, thin leaves that impart the rich, delicious flavor for which Matcha Green Tea is known. In addition to its robust flavor, Matcha Green Tea is a rich source of catechin polyphenols, which provide antioxidants to support overall health.
