WHAT IS MATCHA
Matcha is a particular type of green tea made from tea leaves that are grown in the shade. The leaves are then deveined and ground to powder. This process removes the usual bitterness from the powder, making it one of the most delicious green teas out there. The shade also helps increase the chlorophyll content in the leaves, up to 5 times that of regular tea. This added chlorophyll gives the leaves their unmistakable bright green colour and endows them with high concentrations of antioxidants and nutrients. One of them is L-theanine, an amino acid that helps regulate the stress hormone cortisol, benefiting your overall mood and keeping you relaxed.
