Question 4

What makes matcha different from traditional green tea?

Accepted Answer

Matcha is set apart from green tea due to its sourcing and processing. Matcha is created by crushing and utilizing the entire green tea leaf until it’s in powder form. In addition, matcha is believed to feature more antioxidants due to this process compared to traditional green tea.

Question 5

What causes this matcha powder to contain fat?

Accepted Answer

The fat in this matcha powder comes from medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs) derived from coconut.

Question 6

Is this matcha ceremonial grade?

Accepted Answer

Although our matcha is sourced from Japan, it is not a ceremonial grade. Japanese matcha is shade-grown, which allows it to mature fully before harvest. That typically means more nutrients in each leaf as compared to sun-grown matcha leaves from other countries, which are harvested much more quickly. Ceremonial matcha comes from young tea leaves with their stems and veins removed to help provide a smoother texture and milder flavor.
