MATCHA 101
FROM THE FOOTHILLS OF UJI, JAPAN
What is Matcha?
Simply put it's powdered green tea, but really it's a little more complicated than that.
Tea leaves (of the tencha variety) are shaded for four weeks before harvest to ensure the potency of chlorophyll is at its highest, and is packed with l'theanine and antioxidants. Once the youngest, sweetest leaves are picked, the bitter stems and veins are removed and the leaves are dried before being stone-ground into a fine powder.
We're whisking up the tastiest matcha around!
MATCHA GRADES
Not all matcha is created equal.
The grade of the matcha determines the quality you're sipping (or cooking with). JENKI harvests only the tastiest Ceremonial Grade matcha to ensure you're sipping the best.
We work closely with our team of farmers to produce a blend that's sweet and nutty.
Try this on your friends who don't like matcha, we're pretty sure it'll convert them!
