Matcha is an intensely powerful green tea powder made of whole, shade-grown tea leaves. Referenced for centuries in Japanese monastic culture, Matcha has been used as a means to focus and remain serenely alert. Preparing Tega Organic Matcha from Japan only requires adding 1/2 teaspoon of powder in a cup and whisking with hot water — that's it! Matcha can also be incorporated into food and beverages: add the powder to fruit juice, soups, smoothies, and yogurts for a nutrient-dense boost.
