Premium Organic Matcha

This is our Premium Organic Matcha – a high grade, ceremonial matcha that’s smooth, vibrant, and full of flavour.

It’s made using only the finest first harvest leaves from the top of the plant, stone-ground the traditional way on a granite mill (takes ages, tastes amazing).

Expect:

• A bright emerald green colour
• Rich aroma with a gentle umami sweetness
• A smooth, mild taste and delicate aftertaste

You can whisk it up as usucha (thin tea) or go bold with koicha (thick tea) – both work beautifully. Also smashing in a latte if that’s more your thing.

A proper all-rounder for matcha lovers.

Matcha can be a wee bit fiddly to prepare but a guide below should help. Any questions just please ping us an email.

• Boil fresh water – it’s always best to use fresh water in the kettle rather than reboil the water from a previous boil.
• Let the water cool to around 80°C.  This can take around 10 minutes. A tip is to decant between cups – each decant removes about 5°C so 4 or 5 swaps will get it down to a good temperature.
• Put ½ teaspoon into a matcha bowl or mug.
• Whisk until a fine froth appears.  Be careful if using an electric whisk that it does not spray.  It should take around 10-15 seconds of whisking and you have your matcha. 
• Taste, drink and enjoy!

To make a latte – simply follow the above but with maybe a bit less water – then top up with warmed milk.
