Stone-ground from the youngest shade-grown leaves, Organic Ceremonial Grade Matcha Green Tea is a fine, vivid green powder with a smooth, rich flavour and a naturally sweet finish. Ceremonial grade is made for drinking with water alone: use a quarter teaspoon, about 1g, per 30ml cup, add hot water, and whisk thoroughly, ideally with a bamboo whisk, until a fine foam forms. Water around 80 degrees keeps the taste from turning bitter. For a matcha latte, double the powder and top with steamed milk or oat drink. Culinary grade matcha is coarser and sharper and better suited to baking, so keep this one for the cup.
