Organic Culinary Matcha Powder is stone-fine green tea ground from Camellia sinensis leaves of the Yabukita cultivar, grown and milled in China. Culinary grade matcha is made for cooking and blending rather than ceremonial whisking, so it brings a fuller, more robust flavour: grassy and vegetal with a toasted, slightly bitter edge and a natural sweetness that comes through once it meets milk or sugar. The powder is very fine and silky, and it stains everything it touches a vivid green.
A kitchen-sized jar suits regular matcha latte drinking, baking and batch work: whisk with hot (not boiling) water and top with milk, or fold into sponge cake, cookies, cheesecake, pancakes and ice cream. It also blends straight into smoothies.
Keep it sealed in a cool, dark cupboard, away from heat and strong light.
