PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Firsd Tea’s OCG025 Organic Matcha #2 is a finely milled green tea from Zhejiang Province, China. Matcha was originally used in ancient Chinese tea ceremonies, and was later introduced to Japan. Culinary-grade matcha is used as a natural ingredient for flavoring and coloring foods and beverages.
OCG025 Organic Matcha #2 is made from tencha leaf- green tea leaves specially shade-grown for a defined period. Shading the plants increases chlorophyll content, prevents development of tannins, and enhances the dark emerald-green color of the fresh leaves. Tencha is laid out flat to dry and then partially rolled. It can then be de-veined, de-stemmed, and milled to the fine, bright green powder known as matcha. It can take up to one hour to mill 40 grams of matcha.
See our Matcha Guide for more info on matcha’s benefits.
